as far as I know, Jean will be there, and cloverleaf will be too.. hence there will be competition in Ameraucana.
I'm just bringing bantams though. But thanks for thinking of me!
Still competition for overall.
In regards to broken feathers, etc. Pull them now. Today. Perhaps some will be finished. No bird is ever perfect. For instance, no way to prevent every single broken foot feather in silkies, no matter what you do. I won't have my best birds at Monroe, as I pulled broken foot feathers to prepare for the National in Stevenson and they won't be back in yet, but I'm still going to be showing. I also am not sure if I'll bring any waterfowl- depends on how romantic they are feeling the weeks up to the show. If they are breeding, then my best stay home, although perhaps I'll bring an alternate.
