headed to the show

Hi, all,
Shortly headed out to poultry show. Was going to show 10 birds, but cut back to 8. One hen I really wanted to show decided to lay egg and is sitting. Another hen has a baby, so I can't pull her to show either. Oh, well, just getting 8 birds show ready took enough time. Funny how dirty a little white bird can get if someone else in the loft gets inventive with the poops.

Hi Daryl...

Yeah, funny how "white" gets dirty so fast!

Just got back. The show is primarily chickens, chickens and more chickens. Many call ducks. There were 25 pigeons shown, and I took 2'nd place with a fig. The winner was an Old Dutch Cappuchine. I was very happy with 2'nd. There were some very nice pigeons. The judge really liked my birds, said there aren't many that nice in the shows he attends. The bird I did so well with was one I hatched and raised from last year, she's 3'rd generation I've raised.

Thank you all. I must admit, I was very satisfied and pleased with second place. I also enjoyed the reactions of the people when they saw my tiny pigeons. Many people interested, many questions, and I do love to talk, educate about pigeons, and mine in particular. Funny thing, there were no negative comments about any of the pigeons. Everyone very enthusiastic and interested in the birds. Headed to bed, up at 4 a.m. and off to work.

Oh, and I looked for Pidgey's French Frief Froglets, but never did find them. And I was going to give them a try, too.

The Maine franchise went bust with you drinking up the profits. That, and there wasn't enough interest since y'all up there like those overgrown underwater spiders so much.

George,
Actually it was a dilute yellow check that did best for me, and I did have two whites showing also. The yellow check just showed better. The judge also said he kept going between the two top birds before choosing, and that mine just kept getting better each time. Drat, maybe he should have gone back one more time

Congratulations Daryl on an excellent 2nd place showing, I have no doubt that the judge was very impressed with your figuritas!
