Shows in Newry, Northern Ireland

[gerbilsalldaway]

Hi would anyone be interested in showing their gerbils on probably Saturday 30th June in Pet Connection, Newry. It will be a good way to learn more about gerbils and meet new people. Entries probably 30p per gerbil per class and further 20p for duplicate classes - breeder and pet. First show for East Coast Hamster and Gerbil club so trying to get people. Show carriers available from £3.50 from me and can be bought on day or before in Pet Connection. Gerbils can be shown singly or in groups of more - must be opposite sex or different colours. Classes Self male, self female, white bellied male, white bellied female, AOC male and AOC female. All welcome. Some details may be changed but I will post any changes. Please come. Hamsters also welcome

Will there be another show like this on this year? How did the last one go?

Newry is less than an hour from me - it's easier to get to than Dublin city centre most days.

The last one didn't go well at all! I ended up as the only person with gerbils (and looked like a right idiot ) and there was only a few others showing hamsters.

The club stopped but when my gerbil numbers recover I do hope that I can restart the club. I will get back to you with information if another show is possible.

A bit of an undertaking tbh .... but fair play that you tried
