Hi everyone, Yesterday we went to Echuca and my partner bought me 4 new birds for my breeding lot as I felt I needed some improvement on what I had. But the funny thing was, we have been waiting for the last 2 months for 2 other breeders to ring but we got sick of waiting so I got 4 beautiful birds yesterday and last night the phone rang and guess what one of those breeders rang and I am getting a pair on Saturday, We have six mature birds which have been to the Nationals to choose from ( all spangles) WOW I can't wait.

So here are some photos of my new birds, which are now been kept seperated from the other birds for period of time.

 

Dk Green Spangle cock, this one cost my partner $85.00 he is still winging, because he thinks what we have is just as good, we paid for the pedigree. because pedigree is Henry George line. By the way when he blows his head its' a wow factor.

 

DK Green Spangle Cock. this cock does the same

Gorgeous birds, mate Are you having the same problem over there that we are here....can't get any decent blue series birds for love or money ? :budgiedance:

 

 

PS I have some Henry George birds also.

Yes Kas it's a real pain in the bum! but at least they are all split for blue. :budgiedance:

Due to the lack of decent blue birds, recently at a budgie auction extravagant prices were being bid and paid for pretty ordinary blue birds, not really of any show quality or size at all....just because they were blue and hard to find. Have you any photos of your bird room and aviary ?

The word at the Sheild on Sunday,good birds went cheap at the Bendgo

Auction on Satueday 12th.There was only 39 bidders & 130 birds.Not far from you Splat,would of been a good auction to be at.That the day we have our club champion show & select the team for the sheild & could`nt make it.Perhaps next year.Top price $ 500.00 D/F spangle hen.

I will take some and post them soon maybe not today, my breeding room is small i have 14 breeding cages and 6 holding cages for my young. But The room does the job I would like it to be much bigger, but I don't think Greg would be in it, as he reckons it's big enough.

BUT is is building me an new avairy which will be attached to it shortly.

Yes I new about the sale auction, I lived in Bendigo for 10 years being back here for 2yrs.

All the breeders around here went and tried to sell their birds, Ron Blizzard, Ian Furness I think, J Orlandi, Ron Wilson, Ken Pullan that I know of. Yes we had ours on th 13th, I am in the Riverina Club, might change to Kyabram soon.
