The first show win

[()relics]

This is my son's 3rd year in 4H. He has had some sucess previously but he wanted to "win some hardware". He got his wish:

This is the Grand Champion Exhibition Bird in our county this year, he looks a little rough in the picture,he has been jostled around for 10+hours by this point. And it the "hardware" will fit nicely into this line:

Incidently when you are 11 a win in the county is equal to a world championship and is "way more important than any of the trophies my sisters won"

That's AWESOME ()relics!!!! Give that boy a high five from me!!!! That is one nice bird and after 10 hours or being tossed around he still looks great!

Wow.....that's a good looking boy, so's the hardware! I'm betting he can add a few more of those trophies and beat his sisters...LOL

I know exactly how your son feels! On Saturday my black rosecomb hen won Reserve Grand Champion of Show. She got beat by a bantam white leghorn. Those lil birds are tough to beat!
