Sent 61 birds to Sydney today.Started to get a bit out off control the numbers.Hope they dont have homing instincts and fly back.
A few days working out which ones to send, and catching up all the young.Permits to fill out, boxes to modify.flights to work out.fun fun fun.
Only $154 for 8 kgs Two boxes.From Mt Gambier to Sydney not to bad I thought.Well will wait to see if there are any casualties from the trip.Although I dont expect any.

Hey gomer, just curious... Are you another habitant of Mt Gambier that considers themselves a Victorian? I just saw that in your profile but you said you sent the birds from Mt Gambier?

Mt Gambier is the closet Australian air express outlet to me 115 kms away.Portland Airport only flys into Essendon Airport and dont cart live animals.
I suppose Mt Gambier could be a Victorian town,being only 30 odd kms over the river. :lol: But we wouldnt like to take S.A largest city outside of Adelaide of you guys. :)
