FAKENHAM SHOW OF POULTBT, &c. 



The tifth annual Show of the Fakenham and "West Norfolk 

 Poultry Club was held on the l'2th and 13th inat. in the Corn 

 Hall, a buOding -which, from the great abundance of light and 

 its good size, is admirably adapted for the purpose of a poultry 

 show. 



The Coloured Dorking cocks were inferior to the hens, which 

 included several very good birds. The cup hen was a very 

 fine one. In Dorkings of any other variety Silver-Greys, Whites, 

 and Cuckoos won the prizes. Buff Cochin cocks were a fair 

 class; but Cochin cocks of any other colour were poor. Bufts 

 took all the prizes amongst Cochin hens. The first Dark Brahma 

 cock, which was a grand bird, succeeded in winning the Brahma 

 cup and the champion cup for the best pen in the Show. He 

 won his place fairly, and was a good step ahead of any others 

 in the class. Hens were a nice class ; and here Mr. Leno had to 

 be content with a second prize, first being awarded to a beauti- 

 fully-marked pullet belonging to the Rev. J. D. Peake. Both 

 classes of Light Brahmas contained some very exceUent birds, 

 but some two or three good ones were very much out of feather. 

 In Brown Red Ga?»e cocks Mr. Martin won the Prince of Wales's 

 cup with one of his now well-known strain, a bird most exceUent 

 in colour, style, and shape. This was an excellent class. The 

 Black Reds, although good, were by no means equal. In Game 

 hens, Black or Brown Reds, the prizes went to some most 

 beautiful birds of the latter variety, first beating the second 

 chiefly in style. In Game cocks of any other colour some grand 

 Duckwings were shown; and in hens two Duckwings and a 

 Pile were the winners. In Hamburghs the cup was won by a 

 pair of very good Golden-spangled, the best in their class. In 

 Silvers the hens were, generally speaking, much better than 

 the cocks ; indeed, there were several pens containing good hens, 

 but good cocks were rare. The Golden-pencilled were a fair 

 class ; and the Silver-pencilled contained some very nice birds. 



The first cock had a very nicely-marked taU ; the hen was also 

 a good one. Blacks were about an average, and here the first- 

 prize pair won the second county cup. There were two classes 

 for Malays, and amongst them were some capital specimens of 

 both White and Coloured. Spanish were not numerous; the 

 first-prize pair won the section cup. In French very fine Crcves 

 won first, La Fleche second, and Criives again third. In the 

 Variety class a fine pair of Golden Polish won ; second were nice 

 Silver Polish, and third White Leghorns. The Black and 

 Brown Red Game Baiitam cock class contained some very nice 

 Black Reds, and the other Coloured Game Bantam cocks con- 

 tained some remarkably good Duckwings, also one or two fair 

 PUes. Game Bantam hens were chiefly Black Reds, but a very 

 good Brown Red was first. In Bantams of any other variety 

 SUver-laced, Black, and White were reepectively the winners. 

 In Aylesbury and Rouen Duchs Rouens were first, and better 

 than any of the others. The Variety Duck class contained a 

 very pretty and interesting collection of various fancy Ducks. 

 The Selling classes were numerously filled, and contained a few 

 good and cheap birds. 



In Pigeons the first-prize Black Carrier, a cock, secured the 

 section cup; h« was a tine bird and in capital condition. The 

 Pouter class contained a lot of excellent birds, more especially 

 of Whites, first being a grand White, second and third capital 

 Blues. In Tumblers some good birds were shown, but the 

 competition was very Umited. Fantails were fair. Dragoons 

 were very good indeed, some very capital specimens of Blues 

 and Yellows being the winners. The Antwerp claBS contained 

 some few very nice birds ; the first and second a Silver Dun and 

 a Blue, being both very good in quality. The Jacobins were a 

 fair average ; and in Any other variety all the prizes went to 

 Black Barbs, and the first-prize pen won the section cup.
