Depending on whether it's electronic thermostat or wafer with switch, you might need to order a new switch; call GQF Co, Savannah, GA for them to help you troubleshoot. Tell them what model # you have- how old, etc. www.gqfmfg.com/store/ phone 912-236-0651 or e-mail sales@gqf.com I've had a 1202 for over 15 years. It's the older wafer type. The only thing that's ever gone bad was several years ago. It suddenly wouldn't heat. New wafers didn't help. It was the switch. The little box next to the wafer(s).

from the link mentioned above for viewing the Australian Champion Orpingtons--- I really like the looks of the pullet that was Champion White Orpington, 2012. Nice side view.

The lowest level of meet is a Special Meet- The UOC directors can and should offer at least a Special Meet to every show. The District Director can offer one State Meet per year per state. And, one District Meet per District.
This year, the club is making a major effort to place meets and to compile who had BV, BB, RB (thanks to Vern). More points are allocated to the higher meets. The end result is that we can have Exhibitor of the Year awards. For example, Black Orpington LF Exhibitor of the Year; Buff Orpington LF...of the year; etc. same with white...Also, same with bantams. And, a LF exhibitor of the year and Bantam Exhibitor of the Year.

Is it Fred Farthing? He's doing a great job. I was really impressed with his buff orpingtons at Crossroads.
