Posted March 13, 200916 yr Sunday is the Riverina Budgerigar Diploma Show, Have 20 birds entered and have 19 cages whoops. Been busy preparing them but all done now. I have been spraying them down which I found very hard when I started with 30 birds but I am now down to 19 as some have lost tail feathers etc. I have them on Probotic to get them ready. Wish me LUCK and I am really going to need
March 13, 200916 yr Author Thanks Pearce, Renee and Daz, it doesn't matter if I don't do well because it is a learning thing. But I would hope to do a bit okay fingers crossed. I do have a couple of nice birds so we will see. Keep you informed If I get a chance I will take some photo's on the day. I am going to take my camera. Edited March 13, 200916 yr by splat

Water mainly. Most times when they lose a tail feather it would of moulted out any way whether I was going to a show or not.
March 14, 200916 yr Splat - You should try them on Spark, both before and after a Show for a few days. Spark is a electrolyte product from vetafarm, I used it it for the first time last year and works well.
March 14, 200916 yr Got to agree with Heath. I placed mine on Sparks on Wednesday for tomorrow's ABS Show. It does help.

I put then on spark last year and they had energy galore wouldn't sit still so now I just give it to them after the show to pick them up because a couple of showers ask me what they were on and I said spark and they said no wonder they have energy and advise mr to give it to them after the show to pick them up.
