Okay, I'm back from the ASBC E. Nationals. We did pretty good-- I didn't expect to win anything at all, so we're really happy with our placings. I met up with several other silkie ladies-- Bren from Birds of Paradise, Chris from Touchwood Silkies and several other ladies and of course, our Junior exhibitors! (my son included).

Oh-- Open Show: and I forgot to mention that my cockerels in Blue-- also placed 4th and 5th out of a large class.
I had a Splash pullet that placed 1st in her class as well.

Congratulations one you nice wins and placings! You birds looked great!
