We went to the fair yesterday and was very disappointed in the number of animals overall that was at the fair. The poultry displayed was a sad representation of the breeds with many breeds not even present. I almost fell over when I saw a goose with angel wing with a first place win. There were two roosters with Buckeyes on their tags and they were clearly BLRW. I am still shaking my head over that. No turkeys at all, less than 15 ducks, around 10 geese. My guess would be 25-30 LF chickens and about the same in bantams.
I am very saddened by this and am wondering did anyone else go to the Colorado State Fair or any other State Fair and found the same sort of things. Is it just me or are the fairs dying?
