*This is ‘Sister Sphinx’ a direct Rik Hermans hen bred in the purple. She is a really top class hen in every way…pedigree, handling, feather quality and most important she transmits her winning genes!

For the second week the birds were held until late in the afternoon before release and once again it resulted in a tricky race.
