There were supposedly some buttercups on show there. I wondered if anyone noticed or took any photos of these? I know this as the line with red lobes.

Byhookorchook,

I kicked off the first rare breeds section at the Ipswich Show this year and wanted to add a few different breeds for the spectacle. I borrowed a pair from Jack to take. They weren't good examples as you would be aware and they were not in show condition but they added to the spectacle. The cock bird has a pretty impressive comb and I would like to get your opinion on it so I will organise a photo for you. Don't hold your breath though because I have to buy a camera first.
Jack also entered a pullet in at Beaudesert club show and the weekend just gone at the Ipswich club show.

My section at the Ipswich Show attracted 46 entries and a large Malay pullet came from that section to win Grand Champion Bird of Show. I was pretty stoked about that. Judges were Ray Hall (Rare), Graeme Hopf (H/F) and Mark Kinsella (S/F).
I hope to build up the entries next year.

Always good to see others having a go. When and if I critique he birds,I'm not at all aiming to put anyones up or down. But I will try to put it as honest appraisal as I can as how I see it. At this early stage, even an average bird has more potential than a bad one indeed. For me, size was going to be the second biggest issue but that is ddressed.

Biggest issue? I think sustaining leg colour.

Thanks,

Definately, breeders need an honest appraisal and, as long as it is constructive and correct it should be taken well. I could do with some help next year with the list of ins and outs. I used a list from another show that I enjoyed but every list will have some critics.
Be good to see brahmas and campines. I'll make sure there are classes for them. I have major awards for large and bantam and overall rare breed. They then get to compete for hard or softfeather categories against the open classes.
The malay that won the bird of show was pretty exceptional.
