Wow aren't they fantastic?!!

Mark has advised that the reason relates to spending more time with the family and growing work commitments.

 

Ours is a time consuming hobby. He has rightfully earned his status as a legend. Nice bloke too.

 

I expect the Auction to be BIG. Good luck to him.

I really like his birds but I have never been able to win the bidding at the auctions.

As they sell for big dollars, as you would expect from a champion breeder.

I'm sure this auction will be HUGE!

That is a surprise but family and work comes first. He has stunning birds.

Considering the quality of Marks birds,i don't think he has to.

I am guessing they will go for a fortune.

Anyone hazard a guess what the average might be, does anyone have any idea of the amount of birds he keeps?

 

I am seriously thinking about making the 10 hour trek up the Hume. I have been out of the game for a few years and promised myself that if I got back it I would use his birds as my foundation. I would probably have to get some cages, and maybe an aviary first

It would be unusual to get a bird of marks for $400.............an average would be $1,000 upwards.

Well I'm a wally aren't I posting about this in the news section last night! Sheesh.

 

I am madly in love with Lot 12, but I have been told by an open breeder in my club you wont get a bird under $1000 either. Bugger!

Hypothetical Question , How many Breeders will be at this auction? And How many will be Serious Purchasers?
