Coulee Region Poultry Club Meet

[Mike Gilbert]

Quite a few: John Blehm, Bob Rennolet, Jeff Sonsalla and family, the Thompson family, Jim Fegan, Gina Neta and yours truly.   Not too bad for a late spring show.  The Blehms and Rennolets stayed at our place.   Actually, the weather was not bad at all.  We had a brief light shower.  It was warm at first, but then a front came through and cooled it down.

Sounds like fun, wish I lived closer! Congrats to you and to Jeff & family. At our last show, Walker made it onto champion row with one of wheatens he got from Jeff - they have some really nice birds!

    Well that's a good turnout indeed & its always good to see friends and see how everyone's birds are coming along.  You were lucky with the weather.  Poured today and rained off and on yesterday over here.Congrats to the winners.

Because show secretary duties kept me in the office most of the time, I didn't get out long enough to take Ameraucana photos.  I'm hoping John did, and will post some here.   But here are a couple of shots of the BB bantam wheaten pullet back here at Red Stag Acres this morning, June 6th.    Not the best poses, but they give you some idea of what she is.  Click on photo to enlarge.

Beautiful girl! Very nice shop, too.

She is a keeper...I think I have my photo for the cover of the next Ameraucana Newsletter.

I penned up six more wheaten and blue wheaten pullets this morning in individual cages, along with 3 wheaten cockerels.   Some of them will be better than this one, but they need time to develop.   Looking forward to Lebanon in October.   Thanks for taking those photos John, as mine were not very good.
