I am currently building my breeding cages, I have the mesh fronts which i bought off the internet (24" x 18") and have the sides and backs all ready to go but I am stumped as what to do with the bottoms of my cages for cleaning purposes??

 

Do I try and make it so I can fit some type of tray in there with a wire bottom just above it?

If you had any ideas it would be really helpful! Need to get these ready before the Adelaide auction comes up! Thanks

You can order trays from Magill Grain Store. What Adelaide auction are you selling them at?

I have a piece of 1in x 2 in dressed pine about 1/2 inch from bottom which I use those fly screen plastic clip things to keep my wire fronts in place. I get my trays made from the metal place. They make them to how ever you want them. But I have also gone to a recycle place that has the steel sheeting, you only want it light weight or you would never bend it. But I buy a small sheet and I use the angle grinder and cut my own, then bend the front up. Cheap way of doing it.

Thanks guys! Might chase up the magill grain store squeak, do you know off the top of your head what sizes they make? I wonder how much Fielders will charge me to make them?

I am not selling any at the auctions, I just want to get them ready for myself. I want to buy maybe 3 or 4 pairs at the Fisher's auction next month. I currently have some M&K Murphy stock which are big birds, hope this auction brings some birds with great features!

Thanks again guys

Magill Grain and Fodder I think. I think Fisher's have something to so with the store, I don't know about Sue (auction) directly, but it has stuff for the show budgie fancier. Are you getting into show breeding? The birds there should be fantastic, I can't wait!

I would like to get into show breeding, I bought some show birds last year and bred with them. They turned out well but not quite up to standard yet!!!

I am deverstated as I just realised I have doubled book myself for next weeks Fisher's auction! I will be in Melbourne on a football trip so I will miss it!

 

Do you know of any good breeders in Adelaide that have birds for sale? I am after a few pairs! Looking to start some lutinos and add to my normal green/greys

 

Any suggestions would be great! Thanks

I suggest you get someone you trust........give them a list and your money and let them try and bid for you

Haha thats the problem Kaz, there isnt anyone, I am the only one I know that has this interest. Its killing me! Do you know of anyone that could help me out?

What are the Fishers birds like?

Thanks

Hi Buick. I sent a PM to you. In regards to the fishers birds being good, I think they are!

For a beginner, I don't have much experience but from what I have seen of their birds I like them alot!

 

Also I would suggest you contact a club member from the BSSA about bidding for you Maybe the secretary, or the president.
