Well, Mandy Russell’s got one in her coop, and he was the pick of the bunch at the Deniliquin Show last weekend.
The Gold Partridge Brahma impressed with bold coloured and full plumage.
It capped off what was a very success day for Mandy across multiple categories, including quite a few of the individual breed sections champions.
Reserve Champion Bird in Show went to Ian Graham, who was particularly successful in the breeding pairs sections in multiple breeds.
