Lucasville, OH - Oct 6 - 7, 2012
Russ:
I plan on attending to drop some birds off and to pick some up. I was hoping to have some Bantams ready but just learned a valuable lesson. Wire cages do not make good conditioning pens or at least not with my luck. Just noticed a silver bantam and a lavender bantam had broke a few feathers last weekend (they were in separate pens) . I now have them in my breeder pens (resemble the 6 hole one John posted pics of a while back) I pulled them and have my fingers crossed. How long for a sickle feather to grow back in AAAAHHHHH. Mainly just want to see what a big show is all about and pick some brains ;D
Jean:
Generally the tail feathers can take 6-8 weeks if pulled out so new ones can grow back. I think you have time.
John:
I got their show catalog (aka premium book) in today's mail. If you don't get one and want one, now would be the time to request one. :)
Mike Gilbert:
I received mine yesterday. Pretty incredible a show of this magnitude can hold its entry fees to only $2.00 a head.
John:
They may be the most well-to-do show club in the country, because of all the money they make on the huge swap meets they put on each spring and fall. :D
