CSU - Chicken State University- Large Fowl SOP

Yes, it is the same male. The first photo is the most accurate for type, but does not show his head. The second does not show his type, but shows the head. I do not like either photo, but it is what I already had.

I thught so, but didn't want to judge them as two different birds.

To be sure everyone that posted birds knows.....I will not be dancing around problems with your birds and telling you they are nice when they are not. It is usually easy to find faults, but judges should also look for the positives.......unless the bird is a mess in which case it is kind of a waste of time. I will be gone tomorrow through Saturday late, so I may start with what I have so far. I will see after I finish preparing the birds so that they can go the two days without me here.

Thanks for the pictures.

Rule #2 Clarification: Class Discussions​

2. Students enrolled at CSU shall not speak, post, or address the faculty until such time as the faculty has completed "judging" the bird and instructing the class. All students, not exhibiting at the time, must agree to hold any and all questions until the lecture/teaching/instruction period has been completed.

Revised to add: Those exhibiting and providing photos ARE INVITED to discuss their submissions and may share with fellow exhibitors at any time during the submission/judging/teaching process. The conversation, between exhibitors for the breed section, is educational and highly encouraged.



Discussion among exhibitors, during the period preceding judging, are encouraged to discuss their exhibition, the breed, their history of their bird's development, etc. Students not exhibiting at this particular time are encouraged to hold their comments and questions until judging has been completed. Thanks everyone!!!

Would you like some pics of "youngsters"? I have 13, 12 week old NH and can take/post some pics tomorrow if they would be helpful. Side views only? I think that is what Walt requested.......
