April 17 - Spring Fling & Backyard
BBQ Festival - Moultrie, GA
Sponsored by:
Baell Merchantile & Stones Home Center of Moultrie.
Don't forget to stop by one of these great stores and tell
them how much you appreciated the show!
It was a fantastic Spring day to have a fesitval! One of
Abby's best shows yet. I always thought her interruptions
during the show were unprofessional until I read this
review:
It was adorable! With Abby's impromptu interruptions and
Joe's humorous dialogue and chicken facts, it was the
best attraction there. It was entertaining and informational.

April 24 - Thomasville Rose Show and
Festival - Thomasville, GA
Sponsored by Golden Brothers Company. Don't forget to
tell them what you thought of the Show.
It drizzled the entire morning while we were setting up.
Then it rained a lot after 9AM. It always surprises me on
the number of vendors that leave when the weather gets
bad. The sun came out about 1PM. We were at our
busiest from 3PM to 5:30PM, and the festival officially
ended at 4PM. Thank you everybody that came by,
especially the 2PM Show audience, I noticed a lot of you
singing along with me.
May 13 (Thursday) - OSCEOLA NURSING
HOME - OCILLA, GA
Two Hours Only! 9:30AM to 11:30AM
as part of the week long National Nursing Home Week
Celebration.
Seeing as all our previous shows were with a flowing
crowd, this event was a test of our comfort zone. We
quickly adapted and the 2 hours were up before everyone
was willing to say goodbye. The residents and staff
were sweet and the chickens made some new friends.
June 19 4PM-8PM
F.A.M.I.L.I.E.S. Of The Greater Albany Area
Annual Area-Wide New and Used Book Fair
This quaint event was a fun and educational for everyone.
Not only did we show off our beautiful birds; we also
demonstrated how resilient we are in the harsh conditions
of June afternoon weather. We started out in 90
degree heat and ended with a brief, yet moderate, thunder
storm. The music kept playing and we proved the old
adage "madder than a wet hen" is mythical.
September 11- Lumber City Farm Day
Festival - Lumber City, GA
Sponsored by:
Lumber City Supplements (912) 363-4561 <> 1104 Sand Pit
Rd, Lumber City, GA 31549
Wow! The festival organizers set up TWO sets of
bleachers this year for us. Word must of gotten out that
we packed the one last year. Great first Eggzibit of the Fall
season. I believe the unusual hot weather (95degrees)
was more challenging to bear than rainy weather. The new
cooling fans I installed in the coop were a life saver.
The festival organizers could not have been nicer. We
really appreciated the location perks, easy set up, and
the assistance with crowd control while we took our stuff
down and out.
October 16 - Ole Time Farm Festival -
Uvalda, GA
Sponsored by:
Lumber City Supplements (912) 363-4561 <> 1104 Sand Pit
Rd, Lumber City, GA 31549
Be sure and tell them thanks for sponsoring us for TWO
events!
Pizza Inn of Vidalia (912) 537-1417 <> 1801 Lyons Hwy,
Vidalia, GA 30474
It was obvious that the organizers worked diligently to
ignite new passion for their community's festival. The
Mayor of Uvalda, Mr. Paul, took time to visit every vendor
there; happily accepting comments and critiques.
Thanks for the gifts from the our "near Neighbor" vendors
and Chickenman fans. It is this kind of personal
interaction that makes a festival special. We are looking
forward to working with The Ole Time Farm Festival in
Uvalda, GA again next year.
October 23 or 24 - We'll be taking the day off to
see Day Out With Thomas on the Sam
Shortline in Cordele, GA. This will be our FOURTH
year taking Abby.
October 30 - Syrup Sopping Day -
Loachapoka, AL (pictures from last year)
Sponsored by:
Dillards Country Store (334) 283-4096 <> 2843 Notasulga
Road Tallassee, AL 36078-5854
This year we were prepared for the early crowd. We did
our first show at 9AM. It's hard to play guitar when it's
50 degrees outside. Once the sun warmed everything up,
the event flowed like fresh cane syrup, smooth and
sweet. All our shows had great crowds even our last show
at 4PM. Thanks to Dillards Country Store and the
Syrup Sopping Day Organizers for bringing in "The
Chickens."
November 6 - Mule Day - Calvary, GA
Sponsored by:
The Feed Store (850) 539-3337 <> 10206 Fl Ga Hwy
Havana, FL 32333
The frost on the straps while we set up that morning was
soon melted by the warmth of the morning sun. It was a
perfect Autumn day for a fun filled festival. We debuted
two new "Chicken Antics" which caused all the cell
phones to point in our direction. We crowed all day for the
Sling Shot Booth and 4H Petting zoo. Don't forget to
buy a raffle ticket at Grady General Hospital and stop by
"The Feed Store" of Havana, Fl and tell them The
Poultry Palace sent you!
November 27 - Swine Time Festival -
Climax, GA
Sponsored by:
Climax Community Club (229) 246-3300 <> 416 New St
Climax, GA 39834
The weather was perfect for a late Autumn day; sunny and
cool. The crowd was huge and the audiences
MASSIVE. We hired a professional photographer from
Tree Branch Photography take pictures of our shows.
Thank you everybody for a great year! See ya'll in the
Spring!
