I attended the Midleton show last week, the first time a poultry section was there.
I brought 3 birds, 1 gold Brahma hen, 1 silver Dutch and 1 buff Wyandotte bantam.
I was pleased with how the birds did, getting second with the silver Dutch and a third with the buff Wyandotte bantam.
Today, the 12th of June, I attended the Clonakilty show, again I only brought 3 birds, a gold Brahma hen, silver Dutch hen and a buff Wyandotte hen. These three are different hens to the ones I brought to Midleton show the week before, and was the first time for these birds to be in a show.
Unfortunately I only got highly commended for my gold Brahma and buff Wyandotte but my silver Dutch did exceedingly well, not only winning first in the true bantam section but also taking Reserve Champion of the show.
