Splashes

Jean:
I\'ve seen judges skip birds - mark them NSB/NSV (no such breed or variety) and wondered what I could do to make sure that doesn\'t happen.

This would also be a problem when showing lavender, because it is not in any standard.  I could see an ABA judge DQing all of them out of spite.

Tailfeathers:

--- Quote from: Jean ---I am thinking we are only going to try and get lavender and regular splash birds recognized for the time being.  Splash Wheaten, to my knowledge, is not recognized at all. I have not seen any shown in the past five years.

Again, all final decisions will be made by the Board.  I am just thinking out loud.

Understood.  I\'m just wondering though how many folks have an interest in seeing a SW get approved?  

To me, it seems like it would be as easy if not easier to get a SW approved as it would a Splash since the coloration is basically all we\'re talking about here and the coloration on both the male and female SW is pretty consistent.

God Bless,

Schroeder:
Could someone add Splash and SW pictures to the Photos page?

Mike Gilbert:
We could use upgrades to quite a few of the photos at our photo link.   For example, Jerry DeSmidt showed a beautiful blue bantam cockerel with good lacing at Indianapolis.  Did anybody get a good photo of him?

Paul:
We are willing to contribute to the recognition fees funds.

Finally all our breeding pens for 2012 are completed.  There are 3 pens with splash to splash and 2 pens of blue to blue-so there should be plenty splash chicks here this time.
