The lemon porcelain cockerel took a first and the millefleur hen a 3rd. My blue partridge cockerel was 2nd in a class of 6. I just had a phone call from a lady who saw the lemon porcelain cockerel at the show and she has asked me to put her down for a trio when I start to breed. I'm now just sorting out which ones I'll be taking to the norfolk club show in April.

The wind comes straight from Siberia. My Dutchies cope fine as long as they have somewhere to shelter.
