==========================
[The amount of Sebrights that were shown in early 2013 takes a natural dip after the end of February, when the breeding season got well under way during March.
The summer months see the Agricultural Shows, where there will indeed be a few Sebrights competing and on display, but the more specialised Poultry Club shows start again in earnest in September. Here you will first see the oldest pullets and cockerels from this year's hatch in fine fettle and leading the way forward for Sebrights to begin competing for the big prizes at the major Shows towards the end of the year.]
