For a historic club in Christchurch, competitive poultry pageantry is not only a hobby – it’s an obsession.

“Quirky and compulsive viewing” – Radio Times

The 148-year-old Christchurch Poultry, Bantam and Pigeon Club is home to members from all ages and although they are brought together by the love of their feathered friends, there are troubles at the heart of their organisation.

Watch the feathers fly in the lead up to the New Zealand National Show, as they battle tradition, and each other, in their quest for glory. Following the club through a tumultuous year of power-struggles, vicious rivalries and heated debates, Pecking Order is a heart-warming and hilarious look at their unique world.
