Yeah fellow who buys / sells asked if we were heading to Orange sale . We do a few a year but this year will be all local sales , no more overnighters .
Could not beleive the price and they were quite ordinary looking birds .
Bet ya any money Gomer if we all got stuck into breeding Cordons by the time our youngins hit the market they would be cheap as chips :lol:

True true as nice as it would be to be making some $$$$ from the hobby , it is a hobby after all and meant to be for enjoyment.
After a bit of rearranging Im happy with the birds I have now , by selling of a few pairs that I wasnt really keen on I now have a manageable and enjoyable collection .
Babies are a bonus of course but not a necessity.

And here I was thinking my Hobby was meant to be a black hole into which I pour money. :lol:
A bit like kids actually. :roll:
If making money out of them mattered I would have lost interest long ago.
Selling a few now and then is less a pleasure than a necessity. :o
Now if I could just find a Tardis or 2 to use as avairys the world would be sweet. :D
Tardis for those non sci fi nuts is bigger on the inside than the outside.
