I have bantam Croads in all three colours, black, blue & white, although the blues as yet are not standardised. I also have a few large blacks & a couple of large whites. At present I probably have in the region 40 Croads & now have my own bantam breeding lines, in the blacks & whites & the blues now are also breeding true.
I have kept Croads for six years and shown for five. In the last five years I have shown home bred birds with great sucess, winning at the three major shows, the Federation Stafford, the PCGB National show & the scottish National show.
In February 2007 a home bred black pullet took best of breed at the PCGB National much to our delight. In 2008 my Croads won many AOV classes & SF heavy's, & I also had reserve champion at Cheshire County show.
In 2009 a home bred white bantam female took best opposite size at the Scottish Naional & we won every bantam class. We have also had 2 champion croads at the area & regional shows.
In October 2009 I had the pleasure of judging the Croad Club area show at the Welsh Federation, Builth Wells, which I enjoyed a great deal & thank the club for giving me the opportunity.
