October 23, 201113 yr Author I would have at a guess,it was the Spangle. I did't go today, had a prior engagement. PS A good one Splat. I believe the spangle won best spangle, but the blue was best blue and champion bird.

I believe the spangle won best spangle, but the blue was best blue and champion bird. Were is the Blue mentioned,you only mentioned the Spangle. That will move you up the rung,at the show now Splat. Will that be Open or Champion now & just think how much, you can ask for your birds when you sell them.
October 23, 201113 yr Great job splat, do the events get higher now? Do they go to nationals or what? And again fantastic jop keep it up
October 23, 201113 yr Thank you very much every one, I am just over the moon. I am on a high. I took 2 birds a blue (sky blue) and a spangle (light green). I got 1st with both birds. The sky blue went onto win best bird in show. Yes Macka I am not happy because after my wins I relised I have the points to go up to Open and I wanted to stay in Intermediate for another 2 years. I only got to spend one year in Intermediate . sad. Lucky I only took 2 birds. What so funny Sheppard and Flanigan told me at the end of the show that they were coming to my place to buy birds, lol. I said yeah sure, I think they were joking. lol But I did beat them today in the blue class. Kaz Can i buy my white boy back my boy is very sick. sad. just joking though
October 23, 201113 yr I am so very happy for you Splat! DO NOT sell your birds!!!! I know it like flattery BUT DON"T DO IT. You need depth in your stud to accommodate unforeseen disasters.
October 23, 201113 yr Huge effort, well done. Blows the whole idea that you need to have fistfuls of cash to be successful. You are a great advertisement for our hobby (not fancy). I am sure that with the birds you are producing yoiu will keep doing well. Congratulations Julie.
October 23, 201113 yr I will later Neville, they were very naughty and the photographer couldn't get a good photo of the best in show bird so I have to take one tomorrow and email it down to Melbourne. But I did take a couple the blue was sitting on the floor. will post them later.
October 23, 201113 yr Great result Splat, bet you were chuffed. Look forward to seeing how they grow and what they will look like after their moult. Pics of the ribbons,cards etc etc
October 23, 201113 yr HUGE CONGRATS to you Splat. Does this mean your Champion bird will be on the cover of the next Budgie News Vic?
October 23, 201113 yr LOL yes Rachlem but they couldn't get a photo of him because he had enough, I have to take one tomorrow and email it down. But here is what I took Sky after he chucked the whoopies and refused to perch, he has spirit lol him at home yesterday The spangle today at the shield. this is the spangles brother he didn't go because he has pin feathers where he was plucked but I think he will be nice too. My Trophies A framed certificate for best bird in show plus a huge vase engraved the vase engraving The Trophy and certificate for the Blue class The Trophy and certificate for the Spangle class and 2 lovely presents Gb gave, very talented lady, we had a great day A painted judging stick, my photo is a bit crappy, sorry Leeia. and a matching pastel drawing
October 23, 201113 yr Yes Kaz he was wrapped, he said he couldn't believe I rang back and said I won best bird in Show. Oh and we were sitting out side tonight talking and he said He has been taking a bit of notice of the birds in teh last week and he he knows what I mean about it's hard to cull because there are a lot of good birds in the aviary and some really top cocks. So he now understand I need to keep a few more than normal, sort of anyway. lol
October 23, 201113 yr Congratulations and well done, Its just the start Splatty. Oh No Matty Welchman is calling me Splatty now. That makes Chookie and Mattie, lol I guess I'm their Splatty now.lol Thank you every one that has congratulated me , I have had everyone at the shield congratulate me today except for one couple, there is a reason for that though. But really every one has being so nice. Thank you Kevin for taking me to the shield and being very kind to me because I didn't want to go and I asked him to take my birds and I was staying home. But he insisted on me going because he said today he new I would do well with blue and to think I was going to scratch the blue yesterday too. I have to admit he got lost coming home and we headed for Bendigo, so it took a lot longer to get home than it should of. The best thing is that Kevin has offered to take me to more show in Melbourne next year if I wish to go, so I thought that was lovely of him. And thank you Gb for a great day and lunch.I did wave good bye and yell out as we drove out the gate but you were to busy yakking to notice. lol about time Julie ...eh ? Ha ha it won't last long, I have to admit they are noisy little things and that is what annoys him the most, you can't here yourself think through the day they are so loud. lol.
