At only 20 months of age Annabelle Kelly, Kurrajong, exhibited three of her own chooks in the Blayney Show poultry section coming away with some major wins at her first ever show.
Her Silkie pullet took out champion junior bird of show, while her Langshan pullet was the reserve champion junior bird of show.
A livestock lover from a young age, Annabelle's parents Hanna Wade and Brodie Kelly said she was not afraid to handle chickens, ducks and geese, or their stud cattle.
Grand champion bird of the Blayney Show went to Eliza Scott's Bantam Black Australorp male, while reserve champion bird of show was Luke Turner's hard feather bantam.
