Yep, they're all up now gomer. Photobucket is giving me trouble, for some reason the pics are a good size on my computer but when i upload them they shrink.

Nice birds.

The sale was great was heaps of people there the place was packed! also lots of birds would say at least 70% Gouldians thou as it's the "Jan gouldian sale"

Only saw one lot of split blues but where to expensive for me didn't see any pure blues, was pretty much everything else.

i picked up 6 new birds was after some males as have more hens currently.

2 pairs were

OH WC YB (SF) and OH WB YB
BH PB GB x BH PB GB (wife loves the BH's and didn't have any)

and 2 males
DF RH PB YB
DF OH PB YB

quite happy all the birds looked in good health. It's such a plus being able to buy from Breeders who knew backgrounds of birds and cared rather than pet shops.

There sure were a lot of gouldians, i heard from a seller that there was apparently pair of blues for 300 bucks down near the back left hand, i didn't see them though. I think the hall was a bit on the small side though.

I totally agree with you there Reubenvg, the guy i got my dfy off even told me what he was feeding his birds ad when they were wormed.
