Showmanship Question...

[farmer4eva]

When you show a chicken in showmanship does quality matter not as much as cleanliness and how much you know? I have a blue silkie and on 1 foot she is missing a toe, could that be somthing that the judge would take away points for. Also this is going to be at the county fair and i am showing with 4-H. Any tip or pointers would be apprecaited. Thanks!!!

quality is not a big factor when selecting for showmanship, condition is. the judge will often ask what you would change about your bird so it is good to know some flaws. you can use your seramas
