Contact Show Secretary Vicki Gilliam 13301 Raymond Rd, Waverly Ne 68462 or email her at gilavina@hotmail.com . Printed entry forms should be available after Labor Day or possibly online.

Catalogs are ready for the Nebraska State Poultry Show Nov 3-4 in Lincoln, Ne. You can request yours from Vicki Gilliam shown on original posting. I know she will be out of town this weekend, but back home next week.  Or else catalogs and entry forms may be downloaded from the website nestatepoultryshow.com . In addition to Cash awards there are extra cash awards for Ameraucana.  $30 BB LF Open Class Ameraucana, $30 BB Bantam Open Class Ameraucana, $30 BB LF Junior Class Ameraucana, and $30 BB Bantam Junior Class Ameraucana. Junior Class birds are automatically entered in the open show at no additional charge, Therefore if a Junior entry would win in the Junior Class and Open Show in either LF or Bantam, they could win $60 for one entry fee. (not bad, come on juniors-give it a try).

Show results from the Nebraska State Poultry Show, there were 16 LF and only 1 Bantam shown by 3 exhibitors. LF 4 Blacks, 9 Blues, 2 Wheatens and 1 Splash. 1 Black Bantam. Thank you to Paul and Angela Smith for the day old chick I purchased from them. She is a Wheaten pullet and was BB. RB was a Blue cockerell I raised. This was an increase of numbers for Ameraucana from last years show and hopefully next years show will incease some more!
