what goes on at this? never been to a chicken show! are there just mainly 4H kids showing their chickens or do they have them for sale? Thanks!

It isn't a 4H show, and as far as I understand, not mainly kids. There is a separate Jr. competition for under 18. They do sell birds also. Check out their website for more information.

there isn't any info on the website aside from the time & date...

I can't get the info page to load either. Where is the show? Can my daughter enter??
Thanks!

OK. I printed the entry form. My daughter (10) is studying chickens at school, and wants to enter one of her birds in this!
I know NOTHING about showing, and need help!
How do I fill out the form? Sale Cages? What does that mean?
Also, on the right side of the form, what do C H K P mean?

Thanks!!

Quote:
Sale cages only needs to be filled in if you are planning to have birds to sell there, this is not for birds being shown, they will have their own cages when you enter them with a coop tag on the cage.

OK
C-Cock (male over 1 year of age)
H-Hen (female over 1 year of age)
K-Cockerel (Male under 1 year of age)
P-Pullet (female under 1 year of age)

Hope that helps

It's a great show and perfect for the first time.

Also be sure to check or write Junior on the form that way she will be in the Junior class

That helps a LOT.... thanks!
One more... what does the checkbox "dbl coop" mean? And what kind of cages do we bring the birds in?
I don't know anyone around here in 4H to ask!
Thank you again!
