Which is the best showing breed?

[SophieLemsing]

I am getting some chicks soon and I am going to raise them up and enter them into some shows. Which is the best showing breed out of theses?

- Rhode Island Reds
- Silkies
- Astralorps

Btw this is my first time showing, so if you have any tips go ahead!

I would imagine it depends on what part of the country you live in. For instance if shows in your area have a lot of silkies it will be much harder to win. In some other state the entries could be very meager and maybe only a couple in competition - your bird would have a much better chance.

I live in Australia and I'm planning on entering them into the Castle Hill show and Royal Easter Show.
