HOTOPA - Fayetteville, Arkansas Show Results

(1/4) > >>

Max:
The Heart of the Ozarks Poultry Association held their annual show on November 2, 2013. This was a double show. The first show was the ABC state meet. The second was a special meet. Unfortunately, there were no Ameraucanas shown in the junior show and no bantams shown in any show.  Ameraucanas were represented well in the open show with 34 birds shown by 4 exhibitors. The competition was very close and the judges were scratching their chins trying to decide who the winners were. Here are the unofficial results with pics to follow…

 Max, this one has near - perfect type in my estimation.  Obviously birds can't be judged by a single photo, but I would take her home in a heartbeat.   Do you happen to remember whose bird it was and how she placed?

The next one is a real good bird too, but just from the pictures the first one looks superior.

Mike Gilbert:
This one is OK until you get to the tail.  It's too long and too low.  A little shallow in the chest too.

This one does not have a proper Ameraucana tail.  Too fan shaped and too high.  A little too short in the body also.  Or it may be just a bad camera angle?
