lol...wow that was quick.....you're suppose to be sleeping!! I tried, but everything on this old body is too sore to rest

being new to shows.......can someone tell me what a 50/50 raffle is ??

 

[ChickyChickyBaby]

And fill me in on the testing stuff again. My brain is gone & I cannot remember anything. I am thinking the birds I did not have tested I cannot enter ...... is that right?

50% of the money taken in from the ticket sales goes to the hosting club. The other 50% is the winnings that are available. I don't know if they are dividing it between a 1st, 2nd, 3rd place or if one person gets it all.

If you are NPIP certified then you just have to bring your card to show to the Vets. If you are NOT NPIP then any birds will have to be tested at the door before entry. If you had some tested at another show then you should have gotten a Pink paper/receipt. The birds on that paper are good to go for 90 days at any NC show. If you forget the paper to show to the Vets they will have to be tested again.

OK ... I have my pink paper

In my show bag...... but could not remember when the NC changes go into effect for out of staters.

I am considering the NPIP certification classes for SC.....not sure if I will be able to make it or not, so may just have to have a tester come here instead of me getting certified to do it.......way my luck goes I would not be able to get anyone here for a month

So DD needs to get hers tested at the door right? she did not enter anything last time so we weren't sure how that would work this time.

The NPIP goes into affect for out of staters in April of this year, as I understand it. I live in VA and all I had to do was show the the NC testers at the door my pink paper that my tester provided and I was in the show. I am good for the 90 days too. Now, in March for the VA group.. we are having a free certification class on how to test your birds for AI. Once this is done and you become certified we can test our birds and any other birds in the state of VA. This certification is good for 3 years as a certified tester for AI.

We went to our first Poultry Show last October at the Burke Fairgrounds. Excited to get to go back in a few weeks. Do you have to sign up for the outside sale?

We are bringing more Chicken owners................. Our neighbors MJ and her daughter Skye are going to follow us to the show, they have a mixture of birds. Sye wants to learn how to show, so she is coming to her first show to get an idea. She is in love with our silkies (wonder why that is)........... But, we do so look forward to meeting up with everyone again at the beginning of the month and at the end in Winston Salem too......
