Sebrights, frizzles, Wyandottes and Australorps - these fowl breeds went to auction in the Gympie region this week. Buyers from Brisbane, Mundubberra, Murgon, Kingaroy and Bundaberg converged on the country town for the third Annual Purebred Poultry Auction to buy hundreds of quirkily-named chicken breeds. Secretary of Gympie Poultry Club Odette Hargreaves says the auction is the perfect opportunity for vendors to sell purebred animals and for locals to purchase good quality fowl.
