The Republican Lorrain – Today at 15:48
Little Arthur came on Saturday with his cuddly toy Lapinou to admire the animals at the poultry exhibition. And inevitably, the boy was attracted to hairballs and more particularly babies. Same thing for Maëlle, accompanied by her parents. “I love bunnies, I already have a butterfly type one, I’ll get another one I think. »
Throughout the weekend, the curious follow one another in Garche, behind the communal hall, at the invitation of Roland Veynand and the Poultry Society of Thionville. “We have been organizing this exhibition for more than fifty years. It is an institution. We have thirty exhibitors. You can see beautiful specimens there, even the members of the jury did not hide their astonishment when they discovered a magnificent Dutch rabbit. »

Pigeons, roosters, hens, turkeys and rabbits make up this ephemeral barnyard. All are pampered: seeds, water and hay are available. “We put them in individual cages, under arbors sheltered from the sun. Animal welfare is our priority. »
The exhibition is visible this Sunday, from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Admission is free.
