Hi...Is this going to be judged as an Empress Show?

We are thinking of coming. (If we can get the $ together). This would be our first Empress Show to attend.

It would ge great if you could come!  This is not an Empress sanctioned show.  It is more like a field day and Empress rules will be followed.

Ranchers Seminar:

A Ranchers Seminar will be held after the show.

will discuss the business aspects of running a Profitable Chinchilla Ranch.

Topics will include Feed, Dust, Expenses, Lessons Learned and much more.  
Tony will have two sets of fully equipped 6 hole breeding runs for observation.  
One run will have a wire bottom and an automatic watering system. The other run will have a solid bottom and glass bottles.
