First NCA National Colorbred Show


Trophies sponsored by Higgins Premium Pet Food

NCA President Henry Vela, with approval and in consultation with the NCA Board, stepped up after the National Cage Bird Show cancellation and worked diligently to organize and present a fantastic opportunity for colorbred breeders to exhibit at the national level! Thanks Henry for making this show a reality!!

Kudos to the Winner! Thank you 4 posting the Pics!
Do you know how many entries the Colorbred show had?

Love those Pastels and Satinette birds.
Is the 1st place yellow brown pastel considered an intense bird or is the intense color due to the photo angle?

Clicking on the photo, it looks intensive and I remember how striking the color was. I put two photos in of the bird to try and do the bird justice as it was very beautiful indeed.

The number of entries was not as many as we had hoped. Don't know the exact numbers but the show was a wonderful experience for all who attended.

The smaller number of participants was a plus at the social events especially hospitality and banquet etc. It was easy to spend time visiting at lengths with all the exhibitors and I really enjoyed visiting with everyone. Bird Talk is such a special social!!
