Guys and Gals, you mean

I am not---what are the advantages of said membership? I have thought about joining breed clubs, but having multiple breeds multiplies the time I spend on the birds--already on the Orloff club on Facebook (don't have time for that); would have to also join the Plymouth Rock Club and the Marans Club--I can barely keep up with my BYC forums. I wish I had more hours in a day AND the energy I had when I was younger.

I know this is a RIR thread and I do have some very nice Underwood RC Reds but I also have some, I think are pretty nice Rhode Island Whites. So p,lease indulge me a few pictures of some of them from my late February hatch. As usual they posed so well for me...NOT!!!

Cockerel

Pullet-What I am seeing is the one on the left is that she has such a great open tail. Most of them I have seen are very tight and pinched.


Thanks
Rob

Very lovely birds...

Yup. Is the club the center of my world? Not really, but I do enjoy the newsletter that Terry's been putting out.

I am and like Fred said, I enjoy the news letter. I also enjoyed seeing the red boy that was on the little pamphlet that came with this years membership card. Wonder who owns that boy. lol
I guess it is just everyone's own preference.

Not necessarily government jobs. I spent 30 some years working in microbiology labs in hospitals and those words sound really familiar to me.

Finally got around to downloading the few photos I took at the Pima County Fair. Promised I would post photos of my RIR cockerel that won Reserve American. Hard to take good shots in those cages, but here he is. He is a Reese cockerel that I hatched last spring. Gene Helton judged.




Here is James Smith's White Rock pullet that won Champion American: Not the best photo of her.
