The RFS is having a Bird Sale this sunday 28Aug2011


Location: Wagga show grounds, bourke street Wagga Wagga
Time: Not sure
Cost: $2 entry
$1 a bird up to $40 maximum charge. eg 5 birds = $5 or 100 birds = $40

The RFS president advised that 4 interstate sellers will have at least 200 finches benched for sale between them and other large breeders have said they are coming to the sale. Over all numbers or species expected are not known at this stage. This sale is normally on the small size but majority of sellers and buyers are finchos. This time of year it is hard to buy surplus birds, so it might be your last chance around this area to buy before the spring breeding season begins. For further details contact the RFS.

E Orix good to see you and Bob again. I like your selling style, arrive just in time sell like crazy and depart earlier. Missed Finchman101.

I did not take any photos of the birds on offer due to looking after 2 sites, I was selling my friends birds as well, and after the initial 1 hour rush most birds were sold up. Most people cleared out before 1200 because they sold out or sold majority of their birds.
