Ohio Alliance Meet at Dayton Fancy Feather Spring Show
« on: February 10, 2023, 07:33:50 AM »
I just got the email confirming my Meet request for the DFFC spring show at the Darke county fairgrounds. This is a two day double show held April 29-30 at the Darke County Fairgrounds in Greeneville Ohio. To request a show catalog or for any information please contact Amanda Heitzman at Amanda.heitzman@hotmail.com if you have never been to this show it is a well ran show with wide isles and great lighting. I hope to see many Alliance members there as usual. If anyone is needing Keipper coops they will also be attending this show and you can preorder and pay for coops and they will deliver them to this show, saving you a ton of money on shipping.

Harley and a few of his boys will be there to show off their feathers. Hopefully he will stay in shape for the show!  Look forward to seeing everyone there!

Here is a link to the show catalog and entry form. Don’t forget Keipper coop from  Wisconsin will be there as well. So if you need some new coops for conditioning give them a call and you can save a bunch of money on shipping. I will warn you they have gone up quite a bit since the last time I purchased some.

As Usual Amanda Heitzman and the entire DFFC did another fantastic job putting this show together. There were many Alliance Members in Attendance. Unfortunately I was busy recording results and enjoying the great company and fellowshipping and didn’t get many pictures. Actually I only got one at coop out and it has from left to right Members Janie Villa, Jerry DeSmidt, Stacy Melton and myself. Other members that were in attendance would be Brian Bailey and family, Alex Mayo Harting and family, Cindy Mayo, Kraig Shafer, Brandi Staggs and Illy, and I am sure I am forgetting a few and if so I apologize. I will also add Samantha Wulff filled out a membership form, along with Amber Ringer and I believe a few others. So not only was this a success for our Ameraucana it was also a success in memberships for our Alliance as well. Hopefully Janie has some pictures or other members and they might post them?

Here’s a picture of the BB Bantam both shows. It was a blue hen and was looked at by both judges several times for CH Row. Unfortunately she didn’t hold her tail up and they passed her by to pick a white Cornish P for Ch AOCCL and a Buckeye H Res AOCCL in the white card. Then it was Ch AOCCL a Black Sumatra H and Res AOCCL was a Dark Cornish H in the Blue Card show.

Alex just sent me a picture of Chloe holding her award and CH AOCCL black bantam hen Dottie  ;D It looks like she went on and won Reserve champion Bantam  of the junior show as well. Congratulations on such a big win Chloe.

My pleasure Mike, I think we got another serious breeder of black bantams now. I can’t believe I missed that Chloe Harting black Hen went on to win Reserve champion Bantam in the junior yellow card show. There was some really nice Junior birds at this show. That’s an honest win right there.
