The 40th Welsh National Poultry Show being held in Pembrokeshire today (Sunday) has attracted more than 2,000 entries; a figure reached only three times in the show’s history.

Hosted by Dyfed Poultry Society, the show is to be held at Brithdir Hall, County Showground at Withybush, Haverfordwest today (Sunday, January 10) and is open to the general public from 10am onwards.

There are record entries in many of the show’s sections; notably Softfeather Breeds in Large Fowl and Bantam, Oxford Game, Rare Breeds in Large and Bantam and Large Ducks.

The Show is the British Call Duck Club’s Club Show too, and such a vast array of the colours found in Call Ducks will not have been seen elsewhere in Britain.

Turkeys, Geese, a Graded Sale Section and an Egg and Poultry related Arts and Crafts Section will all contribute towards making this 40th show the best of its kind in Wales.

Admission is just £1 adults, children under 16 free.
