Practical Poultry
|November - December 2019
The end of the year is always a time for reflection on the year gone and preparation for the breeding season to come.
-

This is also the time of year when the two major shows of the year occur. The National at Telford in November and the Federation in December at Stafford. For any person interested in heritage and purebred breeds of poultry these are the two shows to visit and see the complete range of poultry that we have in this country.
If you are going for the first time remember to go on the first day as by the lunch time on the second day packing up starts for the “great exit” at three pm. For the breeder of heritage breeds exhibiting at these shows provides a bench mark as you will be up against the best of the best. So there is no better way of finding out just how good your birds are then to take part !
