Posted January 19, 200817 yr We had another Budgie Show today so I took 13 birds. I could have taken more, but some had tails dropped and were moulting, or still the odd pin feather or two from almost finished moulting. So I took 13 birds and they did rather well. I got 7 firsts 3 seconds 2 thirds and Best in colour class " " " ....NORMAL GREEN " " " ....NORMAL BLUE ( Big Vinnie ) " " " ....LUTINO " " " ...YF BLUE ( Mickey ) " " " ...DOMINANT PIED " " " ....SPANGLE " " " ....RECESSIVE PIED also BEST IN COLOUR CLASS OVERALL LUTINO and a HIGHLY COMMENDED YF BLUE NORMAL No photos of the birds as it was too hot and I had to get them home and cooled down and settled for the evening.

January 19, 200817 yr Well done- wished I could have been there, I am in town for a few weeks but circumstances made me feel I should be at home at the moment. Maybe next time. Was it a good turnout for the first Sat meeting? Might pop over to the other site later and find out.

Maybe next time.Was it a good turnout for the first Sat meeting? Might pop over to the other site later and find out. Yes, a good turn out. Today we also had some cash prizes for incentives...My birds earnt their seed money today and tomorrow I go to Mandurah for another budgie show and the budgies get to ride in the hearse :rip: Edited January 19, 200817 yr by KAZ
January 19, 200817 yr i hope things go well in mandarah for you and the birds enjoy the ride. i think i would be a bit freaked out going in the back of a hearse.
January 19, 200817 yr Author i hope things go well in mandarah for you and the birds enjoy the ride. i think i would be a bit freaked out going in the back of a hearse. The birds wont notice Anyway, its been a great many years since the hearse was used for a hearse,........its just a really big station wagon
January 20, 200817 yr i know the birds will not mind. i just meant i would find it weird being in a hearse. i did not mean it to sound insulting to your birds or hearse the way i wrote it.

January 21, 200817 yr :ygbudgie: Wow Kaz, you really kicked the competition, congratulations!!! And as far as them being transported in a hearse, well, I used to live in an ex-morgue many years ago (and it had been used as a morgue MANY decades before that) and it was okay. Ghosts don't bug us (thats movie stuff), it's the nasty people around us, hearses are just fine!!!

Re the hearse.....I have been requested to use my hearse at the Budgerigar nationals in May to transport the show birds from their holding area to the staging area each day and back again. They figure my hearse can fit around a 100 showcages in it and save a lot of work for people and trauma for the birds.
January 22, 200817 yr Author Kaz, that should cause for a few ppl to look & stare. :angel1: :hap: they already do Macka :hap:
January 22, 200817 yr I can only imagine the Birdy Hearse Transport.. should have a bunch of people follow behind you while you drive really slow from one to the other
