2017 CHB Summer Poultry Shows

Canadian Heritage Breeds once again hosted two successful summer shows in 2017.  The first was held in conjunction with the Red Deer Westerner Days Fair on July 23rd.  Vermilion Fair was held the  following weekend, with a CHB poultry show taking place on Saturday, July 29th.  Both events included Junior classes and Egg Shows. The CHB summer shows provide an excellent introduction to exhibiting poultry, and the APA certified judges at both shows were incredibly helpful, friendly and enthusiastic about sharing their knowledge with exhibitors!  

For our friends on Facebook, you can watch a video of our Vermilion judge, Jim Adkins giving his post-show thoughts. Follow this link:  www.facebook.com/crystal.mckinnon1/videos/10156364805119578/
