OUR ANNUAL SHOW

Every year KDPC conduct a poultry exhibition show in line with the Victorian Poultry Fanciers Association (VPFA). We will follow the standard schedule and feature breeds for journal awards, for the current year. We have a well set out shed, friendly and chatty members, and amenities to keep you comfortable while you await your birds to be judged.

Witness the amazing array of poultry variety to display, with ducks, chickens, turkeys and more! We always have a pot luck lunch and presentations shortly after, which is talked about far and wide - if you bring in a dish or dessert, lunch is free.

Be sure to mark yourself down for lunch on the entry form.
