Has anyone on here shown poultry before? I could use some instruction or tips if you would be so kind to pass on.

Hi,

We currently have some Bantam Black Cochin biddies - 1-5 days old. The pullets will be added to our breeders - got a lonesome unrelated roo just dying for some girls! The boys will have to be sold off/rehomed. Our Faverolles are going broody again...after a first-time hatch of 4 biddies out of a "community nest" back in October! We're planning to keep and breed WFBS, Blue Andalusians, Faverolles, EE's, a few other varieties of bantam cochins - SL, partridge, red (1 pr each right now), some LF cochins - blue, white, partridge, red (maybe GL if I can find some pullets and buffs if I can get a replacement roo!). I had hoped to breed RS Yokos and Black Sumatras, but the cockerels I ordered ended up being pullets too! (How often does THAT happen....In every other breed, we have a rooster overage!...One crows and it goes on for an hour to get around the pen so every roo gets heard!! LOL!)

We've been trying to thin down the flock (victim of husband's over-zealous re-introduction to chickens!!...some seriously rampant chicken math!). So a lot depends on what we can manage to sell by breeding season.

Oh...not showing any time soon.

where did you order from? i have a roo but he isnt SQ from what ive been told here.... forgot which thread i posted him in... either way if you want to use him i can send you pics.... im breeding him in the spring with his girl and my sumatra....

Speaking of showing - there is a poultry show at the Ft Worth Stock Show in January. Too late to enter but if people can go, would probably be a good experience just to check it out.

I am going to the big show at Texas A&M on January 5th.

Can you buy chickens at the shows?

 

[Texasmja]

Yes

Both of my only Rosecomb roosters just died in the past two hours from an unknown cause! I have a hen of the same breed so I hope someone has a rooster!
