Just to look at some other chickens we went to the poultry show at Haverfordwest Showground this morning. It made a change to see so many fancy birds, which are mostly raised for breeding and showing I believe. They were many and varied as you can see ...

I thought these fluffy birds were just the thing for dusting the blinds in our bathroom!! ~
I am sorry not to know most of the names of all the many and varied breeds that were on display. Some of them were magnificent - especially the cockerels.

Several birds had this beautiful marking on their feathers, but in many different colours.
