DAVID Brewer is cock-a-hoop after his latest success at poultry and waterfowl shows.

The Cononley man has now won a hattrick of Craven Feather Auctions championships.

His latest victory was at the Christmas show, at Skipton Auction Mart, with a trio of Rhode Island Reds – a cockerel and two pullets.

They sold for £55.

Previous successes for Mr Brewer, 20, who is studying primary education at Leeds Beckett University, included the champ's crown at the last show in September – then with a trio of White Silkies.

Reserve champion at the Christmas event was Sid Moore, with a pen of waterfowl.

The show judge was Tim Metcalfe, of Clayton.
