5 Breeder Displays 5 CHB is excited to introduce a Breeders Display competition this year! Enter at least one Cock, Hen, Cockerel, Pullet and one trio in a variety. The more birds you enter in your variety the more points you may be able to rack up. If you re an ABA member you will be pleased to note that Champ and Res Champ Displays are awarded an ABA Star when a minimum 10 displays are competing. The following rules apply: All entries of a display shall be of the same variety and of the same breed. A display shall consist of five or more entries to be made up of not less than one entry in each of cock, hen, cockerel, pullet and trio classes. All display specials are awarded by points. All first places count 6 points, second places count 4 points, third places count 3 points, fourth places count as 2 points, and fifth places count as 1 point. All points count as double when won in a trio class. Junior Showmanship General Information: Junior poultry show exhibitors are encouraged to participate in Showmanship, however it is not mandatory. Showmanship competitors are not required to have birds entered in the regular Junior show classes. Birds used for Showmanship do not need to adhere closely to breed standards, as in the general poultry show classes, as contestants are not judged on the conformation of the bird, but on his/her general knowledge and breed-specific knowledge, plus handling skill. Using a mixed-breed bird is permitted. Large fowl chickens, bantam chickens or bantam ducks will be accepted for use in the Showmanship class. The bird should be in show condition meaning clean, healthy, well-feathered and free from parasites. Entry Fees: There will be no entry or exhibitor fee charged for Junior Showmanship, but entry is required using the general poultry show entry form. Scoring: Scores will be tallied out of a possible total score of 100 points using a standard score card. Prizes will be awarded to competitors with the highest total score achieved in the following categories: Handling Contestants will be judged according to their ability to hold and handle their bird with skill and confidence. This will be demonstrated to the judge by correctly removing the bird from the cage, examining the anatomy of the bird (ie: beak, toes, wings, keel) and returning the bird to the cage. Knowledge testing CHB will follow the guidelines set out by Youth Exhibition Poultry Association (YEPA) at the Junior Level. Please refer to this sheet for sample questions:

6 Walking Contestants will walk their bird the length of a table to show their ability to control and maneuver the bird with a minimum of coaxing. Contestant may decline to participate in this test, and will forfeit the points for doing so. Showmanship contestants are asked to dress neatly, be attentive and courteous, and remain professional throughout the competition. There is no dress code in place for contestants. 6 ACCOMMODATIONS Mention Canadian Heritage Breeds when you book!
