Same boy :)  And the same blue pullet that won BV last week took BV this week. :)  Of course, I can't take credit for the blues - those were bred by Sharon Yorks.  I can't wait to see what I get in the brooder boxes next spring!

Birdcrazy:
I guess you had better keep showing the guy! You can't complain of the results even if you feel the other cockerel is better. What is his fate? The cockerel you thought would win.  Keep showing, breeder pens? Sounds like he is too good for the soup pot!

Susan Mouw:
Well...I'm waiting to hear back from my ride for this weekend, but if they have room...we're going to Cape Fear. :)  It's not an ABC meet, so no points, but two of three judges should be good for him.

I have a couple of early winter shows in Jan/Feb that he will probably go to, before relegating him to the breeding pens for Spring.

Oh yeah, definitely too good for the soup pot!  LOL...He's going to be staying and will be the sire of my third black breeding pen in the spring.

Ernie Haire:
Thanks for the update, Susan. I have been wondering all weekend how things went in Knoxville. Congratulations to everyone how exhibited at the show this weekend. I hope to be able to show there in the next couple of years. Mom, Mary, and Peggy were up there a couple of years ago and they really enjoyed the show.

Be Blessed,
Ernie Haire
