Cleveland Agricultural show

So I went to this yesterday and took loads of photos of the animals being shown. I'll only post some of the best ones, ones I like (or worst ones).

The whole album is here, but donno if you can see it, if not click on the photos and you should be able to click left and right on photobucket.

First animals I saw were the horses and ponies.



Then the cows. I felt sorry for the cows and sheep as they had no shelter from the sun and only water sometimes and some of the sheep looked hot.



This bull was humongous! His head was easily twice the size of the other cows/bulls!

Dog agility - which I missed.



Birds of prey - wonder if anyone can guess the species correctly (one of them is a hybrid) I also missed the flying display

Some really nice bonsai trees



Biig chicken


Nice coloured rooster


Little black hen


Lovely white rooster


I do like these colours




Long legged chickens


Pidgons!


This one I can't believe they think this is a good variety to breed! It looks like it had tumours all over it's face! Why would anyone breed this? Let alone let it become a variety?? They're called an English barb. Some photos I've found have them with these tumours around their eyes too. :/ It looks disgusting!


This poor thing can't see out the sides. Not sure if that calms them, but doubt they could fly properly. (this one is looking striaght ahead where it's body is facing)



I like the little ruff on these ones



Curly feathers - found out the variety is called frillbacks.


These ones are called Swallows ( I think)




More to come!

A Pouter


A fantail



Think this is a modenas

Rats!

The main variety I wanted to see in the fur was a red eyed Marten. Not only was a red eyed Maten the first one I saw when I went over to the rats, but was the first one to cuddle


Some of the varieties I forgot or don't know

Variegated dumbo in the back


Russian blue point siamese


Can't remember if this was a Russian Blue or Black eyed Marten with I think a pew.


Black Essex - a variety I've not seen before, I usually see them in agouti or cinnamon.

without blaze


Siamese and a Roan


Old man dumbo rex hooded


Head rat - Black eyed Marten.

That's all.
