I have a 'mutt' chicken that my son will be showing for showmanship this year. We're more focused on his abilities more than the chickens but were were advised to find a high protein feed for our bantam and read that 26% was considered 'top notch'. Where can you get something like this? A...
Hello guys, I’m just wondering if this is a good show quality drake. I know he shouldn’t have the white but I will look into breeding it out. I may buy him if he’s a good quality bird.

RULES:
1) Muscovies must be adults to be entered in this show.

Hi! I'm new here and have had chickens my whole life. My husband and I got our own flock Feb. 2016 and I love having my own to care for. I'm looking into starting to show and breed cochins. Any info and tips would be appreciated! I started with just production breeds, then went for the colored...
I have been thinking of getting into showing chickens. I was thinking of getting two bantam hens and keeping them in an outdoor rabbit hutch and a run. I'm not sure if having only two is enough for the birds' well-being, and I'm not sure how I should raise them. Is raising show hens different...
The 2017 Reno show is coming up at the beginning of Oct.
DH & I were thinking about attending for the first time just for fun & looky-loos but have never been to it. It is a 3 hour drive & he would have to take the day off work.
So my questions - is it a fairly big show? Is there a good...
I've got a fabulous little Pyncheon roo. Truly tiny but don't tell him that! He's got a huge personality!
I want to enter him in a local bantam show at our tri state fair, the only thing is his comb is so large that it droops over to the side. It's perfectly straight, just flops over, almost...

I am noticing a pattern in the chicken bathing tutorials. "A splash of vinegar" or "a squirt of glycerin" or "soak for a while". No specifics, just pictures of chickens in 5-gallon buckets. I am also getting conflicting information on which tub should go first.
What works for you? How...
Hey all! I have a half dozen silkie cockerels/pullets this year, and figured why not post them here? I'd love to hear some educated (or even less than expert opinions - anyone is welcome to chime in!) opinions on my birds! Judge them, critique them, place them, complement them, whatever. Be as...

Hello all! I've raised market birds before, but this will be my first year showing exhibition birds. I would love to hear some tips, tricks, etc regarding the preparation of my birds for show. I'll be showing one silkie cockerel and one pullet. The show will be August 3, so there's a little...
I'm a new egg here at BYC and just wanted to learn a little more about showing my Marans, breed genetics, and other helpful tips. Also, I have a few questions. Should I use horse show-sheen on my Marans? I've heard some breeders talk about wanting a dull luster. In my experience, the spray makes...
