I'm a 30 something (more something than 30) Registered Nurse living in country Victoria in the small friendly river town of Charlton. I love animals, and I have 3 very energetic and bouncy Boxers whom are my life.

I have bred and shown small animals all my life. I have bred/shown and judged pedigree exhibiton cavies (guinea pigs) very successfully for over 25 years, but I have recently made the decision to move them on and return to budgies. I have kept budgies previously (about 15 years ago), in an outside flight and bred them in breeding cages. I never got around to showing them though, not that they were good enough.

Now I have bought my own home and settled, I am in the process of making a new birdroom and starting again with budgies after 15 years without them, now I have time to devote to them with the cavies now gone after so long. I have my all wire breeding cages ready, just need to finish the bird room and flights so I can do this properly. I will be joining the Bendigo Budgerigar Soc. in the new year and hopefully will be able to source a few decent pairs of birds to help get my foundation started.

Cheers,

Matt
