Witmyer Judges New York Show Largest Poultry Event
Dan Witmyer notes the New York Show is the toughest to judge due to record entries and exhibitors’ eagerness to score. Over 70,000 birds are entered, with 25 judges from across the country each evaluating a breed. Trimmer, Myers, Buck and Strickler travel to observe and some have birds entered, including Timmer with Black-Tailed White Japanese Bantams and Myers with the Black Japanese Bantams. Buck has about 200 White Rose Comb Bunname. Strickler raises Bantams but has no birds in this show.
