Pheasant Hunting

On October 25th I went to Paradise to a hunting club to go pheasant hunting. I couldn't decide wether I should go or not but, I finally decided to go hunting, and I am glad I did! Me and my dad woke up early and drove to Phil's house. Then Cody, Carson, Phil, my dad, and I loaded into the truck to head to Paradise we got there and we started hunting right away. We saw 7 birds, all roosters, but, we only got 6 of the ones we saw. I shot 2 of the 6 and had a lot of fun. Next time I wont be hesitant about not going.

My Ginger Red Old English Trio

These pictures were also taken in August 2008. They were shown as a trio at the BE County Fair. They did better than I hoped and received Reserve Champion Bantam Trio. I must have had 4 or 5 people try to purchase them from me that weekend. Nothing doing - me likes them too much. I used all my birthday money to purchase them in July.

Utah Fancy Poultry Assoc. Fall Show

Last weekend I attended the Utah Fancy Poultry Association's fall show. There were some great birds on display. The Champion Old English was a Crele shown by Kevin Christensen. It was an amazing bird. I would love to expand my collection in the spring to include Crele's. My cousin Bailey picked up a Rosecomb trio and my little sister Kate found a pair of Blue Splash Silkie's to bring home. They are very high quality silkies from Sassy Silkies.
