surf_space Posted July 22, 2012 Share Posted July 22, 2012 Hi all, I am hoping to start to show my birds and wondered if anyone knows any good shows I can check out over the summer? As I will be new to showing any additional advice would be much appreciated. Ellen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redwing Posted July 26, 2012 Share Posted July 26, 2012 The next show near you is this weekend - 28th BRITANNIA LEEK & DISTRICT SHOW BIRCHALL PLAYING FIELDS OFF JUNCTION ROAD LEEK STAFFS. ST13 5QP There is also a show near Coventry on the 12th Aug The main serious show season starts in October and runs till the end of February, the big show on your doorstep is The Federation show which is the biggest one in the UK. Not far away is the National show at Stoneleigh in November - both of teese shows attract entries of 5000+ are are held over two days. Smaller shows are held in Stafford and Tamworth too Its worth trying to find your local club as they will hold at least one show a year usually Also investigate the breed clubs for your chosen breed There is some more general info about how a show works in the FAQ section Good luck if you give it a try, I love the main show season Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
surf_space Posted July 26, 2012 Author Share Posted July 26, 2012 Thanks for the help I will probably check out the first few then start to enter when the season starts. I have pekin and japanese bantams but as of yet can't find any clubs near me I'll keep searching and hopefully I will be able to find one.

surf_space Posted July 29, 2012 Author Share Posted July 29, 2012 Leek show was so interesting! And the birds were very pretty to look at! I now have some idea about showing my birds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
