No I was just saying that they have a show so they must have a standard that they use.Are there any QFS committee members on here who can advise?

How does QFS judge if there is no common benchmark?

At Wollongong Finch Club we have a table show where everyone present votes to determine the winners. Although this generally works fine it can result in some strange winners.

They just have a judge who makes a decision.
They talked about introducing a standard a few years ago & I don't think it got to 1st base.

An Irishman, whose hobby was breeding Gouldians, was asked if he showed them

"Don't have to!" he replied, " They know how to do it by themselves, already!" :o
