The 2026 APA National hosted by the Ohio National on November 15-16 will be the bantam Ermine Ameraucana pre-qualifying meet. If you are working to produce Ermine Ameraucana bantams that meet the standard, this is a great time to show off your hard work. Feel free to contact me for more information.

Breeding / Re: Dun variety project

John, I could see that pullet as being foundational for a line of duns.   Now to produce a male with the same even color throughout!  You have put a lot of time and effort into this project.  I hope you can see it through to completion.

This is my favorite, of the LF dun project. She has the most brown color and is the only one without an extra dark hackle. Maybe she lacks the charcoal gene (Cha), so she is a more even color.

Here is a link to the 2026 Alliance Northern National Meet show catalog and entry form.   You can also find it on the Poultry Show Central website.
The Days Inn will fill up quickly, so we recommend you make reservations as soon as possible.  Or, if you prefer, the Shamrock Inn is closest to the fairgrounds of all the motels listed.  Because of location, it will also fill up quickly.   Also, we are looking for donations of birds or poultry related items for our silent auction.  Please reply to this message with your donation(s) so we know what needs to be set up.   Our club table will be along the north wall with the auction items next to it.  Whoever might have the signage, please remember to bring it along, as I no longer have any.  Just as a reminder, this is a two-day, single judged event.  There will be an awards ceremony and refreshments in the lunchroom of the show building Saturday evening.  At this point we have not planned a club meeting, but I'm sure that can be arranged if we want one.  Let your wishes be known, and we will try to accommodate!

Nice Awards.    Lord's willing I'll be there one way or another representing a couple varieties in LF and Bantam.   Looking forward to it, and meeting club members in person!
