thanks! A good use for an old cat litter container!

does anyone know whose bantam frizzle cochins were in the show? I'd love to buy some eggs from them in the spring... Or even just a few hens and a roo.

...
Also i am still looking for a bantam mille fleur cochin roo. If anyone has one... let me know! I was going to get a mottled but now i'm convinced i need one that's a mille. Or at least a project mille

I had the black frizzle cochin bantam hen,. Those white were nice looking.

oh! They were beauts too! I have some black frizzles already... Well not really black they are more brown red or black gold... Not sure which. The frizzles are certainly my favorites!

but those whites... I was practically drooling over those little birds... They were so cheeky too! Kept wedging through the bars one of them even nibbled on my boyfriend! Does anyone know of a way to find out whose birds those were and some contact info? I tried to find out there but i got overwhelmed and gave up... I should have stayed til i found out.

imo the for sale section should have been in a warmer spot... Like maybe off the one corner of the room? There were some chicks that were huddled and looked terribly cold and sad because they could not get warm... I felt so bad for them. And i do agree that the for sale section was a bit in the way of the entrance. But the for sale section didn't bother me too bad. At least not compared to the rude children that kept hitting me as they ran like wild monkeys through the aisles... That was s big problem to me and a lot of the reason i left so soon.

Yes I did notice a lot of out of control kids running. I also saw some kids opening the cage of the small chicks that were for sale and handling them I know for a fact they were not theirs, but I looked for the owner to tell her as I was leaving I could not find her and the husband was in a rush!

At the nationals you will see some cages with zip ties and thinsg to keep them closed.
