Kent Poultry Show 2015

Kent Poultry Club Autumn Show 2015

We were delighted to welcome our judges; Marcus Walker and Simon McKean. They had travelled down from Huddersfield to officiate for us. A huge thank you to them as they very kindly took the appointment when our original judges realised they had double booked.

Our judges were impressed with the standard of the birds, but, as with most shows at this time of the year there were many that were not through the moult.

They found their Best in Show in the True Bantam section a very well put down black Pekin belonging to Ian Sissons. It’s good to see Ian back in force! Reserve was a fit Light Sussex bantam from our great supporter John Pummell.

At first I thought there would be little need to describe the content of this book to you as the title is so self-explanatory… but I was wrong and it far outweighed my expectations. The book includes superb colour photographs of nearly all breeds of Waterfowl, (many of which are show winners) and includes the new colours of Call and Runner ducks that are so popular at the moment (there are in fact 27 pages devoted to Indian Runners!).
