The National Federation of Poultry Clubs Show was held in Staffordshire at the County show- ground on December 21st and 22nd 2013. The Federation is one of the largest poultry shows in Great Britain. This year there were 7109 birds at the show (this includes sale pens but not the Canaries or Pigeons that were there). Rupert Stephenson and Tim Daniels went to the show to capture some of the Champions (and a few others).
