The great thing about this auction is that Barb can take comfort in the knowledge that her late husband's birds will be going to good homes... Not only his birds (I think). Just been through catalogue and highlighted....a couple Did This gentleman,show his birds, or were they just pet type.If they are of good show quialty & he kept a record of the breeding, there will be some good birds,for someone to get started.If no one has been in & picked the eyes, out of them.There no information on the catalouge, to the breeding of them.Just have to watch the bidding & those in the know are bidding on them,stick abid or 2 in & help his wife out with a few extra dollars,if they are any Good. As I said, top breeders here. I think ( someone correct me lol ) they have more then 400 chicks a year with over 600 adults. Great birds, I love the style of them. Someone correct me if I am wrong as I am not toally sure the info is correct, somwere along the lines through. Edited September 16, 2010 by Squeak_Crumble Link to comment

Kinda cool just buying birds on their own merit and not on a name I think actually. Barb is still keeping a flock of around 100 and cutting back here on varieties John did, so she can focus more on what she would like to do with the birds too. Between the two of them, their birds were a full time job and she just cant keep up with all the work, so I think she will be relieved to move some of their birds and yes, of course the money helps. The yellowface sky is mine and the cinnamon violet, clearbody violet/blues ooh and the violet sky. It's a pity we have the same taste. It's on.... Not interested in yf's, or cinnamons and I have enough clearbodies to work with for now to not buy more just for the sake of it. I would like a couple of blue series dom pieds and something violet, but Im not looking to be spending big money - now if there were fallows...... lol Link to comment

No big price tags, a number around the $100 mark and one hen got to $210 I think. I bought (and probably paid too much for) a sky violet hen, a cinnamon sky cock who I am very happy with and a grey green cock who is also a nice size. I stopped bidding on the hen, but my partner thought I really wanted her and he took over bidding to get her for me. She looked better at the auction than she does now she's home, but that happens sometimes I guess. Still, she is a colour I want to breed with, so I will use her this season and possibly put her in an auction next year Link to comment

All of the birds sold in the end, with the cheapest birds going for 2 for $20 in a last attempt to sell them. I think there was about 5 or 6 bird that went between $100 - $150. I got a lovely lutino cock bird and a nice hen also, both $20. Link to comment
