Country Live Harrogate October 2012
First of all I would like thank the leghorn members for choosing us to judge our first club show at the countryside live . The leghorns on the whole were good quality and well presented , with some strong classes in the bantams. Our champion was a lovely white bantam pullet from david wilkinson , which later on took the best in show award . The large fowl were a bit low on numbers , best large and reserve champion was a nice cuckoo pullet from mr Grice . That went onto win best large light breed. Both leghorns winning the light breed which was a good do.

Report - Peebles man R.K Danny Walkinshaw took overall championship of the poultry section at the recent Royal Highland Show last weekend. Danny beat tough competition from across the whole of the UK to take the much coveted Show Championship as well as numerous other prizes including Champion Challenge Salver, Nitrovit Perpetual Silver Trophy for Best Bantam, Best Leghorn and Best Soft feather Light Breed Bantam. His success was achieved with his favourite white leghorn bantam female - home bred and beautifully presented. It was understandable that she took the four judges' eyes with a perfect pure white turnout so vivid despite the dull muddy conditions in the show ground. Many visitors to the show were intrigued as to how her smooth feather condition and pure white was achieved. There was a record entry in the poultry section this year with over 800 entries in the section making Danny's overall success even more admirable. Danny was absolutely delighted with his win. Danny is pictured with his family receiving the trophies and enjoying the success. Danny is a very experienced poultry keeper, exhibitor and qualified judge who has shown for decades but this is the first time that Danny has scooped the big prize at the Highland proving that it really is the win of a lifetime. Danny is a founder member and hard working Honourary President of Peebles Poultry Club. Congratulations to Danny on this very well deserved success.

Judge F Clark
I enjoyed the challenge of placing the awards at this club
show
Having judged the club shows on numerous times over many years
I have been involved with our breed. Over all the best examples were good and
the winning white bantam cockerel was my breed for the club champion, and for
good measure it took the overall Reserve champion in the show
Large
Only four penetrate black cockerels of average quality, the brown pullet was
best large in so few competitors
Bantam
White cockerels the winner was the correct exhibition type including a fully
furnished tail.
The second was very close but it was sappy probably having to much maze, you
must stop this when as growers they are getting their final plumage .
The winning white pullet was reserve champion after heading a useful class
Black cockerels only three penned none of which a good exhibition quality breed
out of pullet breeding pens, To breed top quantity you must have a separate pen
dedicated to these, picking the best from a pullet breeding penis not good
enough to challenge for the top awards
Black pullets the prize winners were of good type, but a breeder of these for
sixty years I was disappointed by the lack of top colour the correct beetle
green? Again serous application is needed to correct this.
Brown cockerels only one penned correct for type and colour. Pullets some of the
correct colour, but alas we are still getting poor head pieces, this has
prevailed for years. I accept this colour must be the most difficult colour to
bred. But it could be over come with time and serous effort over several
breeding seasons, these second quality keep winning because there is is nothing
better.
Blues, some of the prize winners were of good type and variable colour, remember
this is only a made up colour, and to maintain this you must be prepared to
introduce stronger colour genes from time to time
A.o.c only one pullet good type and sound colure.
Members/exhibitors may find some of my comments harsh, but the Leghorn is a showman’s breed and requires serious dedication to claim those top honours! It can be done As many of you know it requires double mating only that will bring success at the top, and to prove that I remember many years ago, a master breeder of white bantam pullets only wining three best in show on the same day( GO FOR IT!!!!)

I
thought that you would be interested to know for your website /
newsletters/ rolls of honour that the Best Light Breed Bantam overall at
Peebles Championship Show held Sunday 27/2/11 was a white Leghorn
female shown by J. McLachlan. The Best Light Breed Bantam was sponsored
by Millers Town and Country. Great to see such a lovely little white
leghorn making it to championship row. |
|
I must firstly say thank you to our members for putting me forward
to judge and hope I didn’t upset too many . |

Otley Spring Show 2009 Winners
The Show Champion was Ian & Chris Mills white leghorn female. |
 |
|
Reserve was Wilf Charnock with a brown female. Wilf tells me that this bird is 3 years old and has been reserve twice, both at Otley, no mean feat for a 3 year old bird. |
 |
| Ian Mill's Black cock. These cock breeders are really going places! |
 |
|
The Blue of J Crowther another good bird, good type and well put down. |
 |
|
The Large was won by our secretary, Richard Grice, who was sunning himself in the Algarve , hope he brings something nice for his sister? |
 |
|
We also had a visitor from down-under Mr Neil Penny (who was the
Australian president up till last year), who donated engraved goblets to
the champion. It was just a shame that time was against him as I know he would have
liked to have stayed longer, as it was, we did have a few laughs but would
have liked to have discussed some of the finer points with him, perhaps
next time Neil? |
