hi All

Just letting you know that the Adelaide Zebra Finch Society will be having it's Young Bird Show this Saturday 10th April. It's open the public from 1230, so please come along and have a look if you are interested.

Address- Sea Scout Hall, 389 Regency Rd, Prospect.

I won't be able to answer any reply's as I fly out to Singapore today for work and fly back in on the morning of the event :shock:

Anyway please come along if you would like to see some Zebra's 8-)

ps, Mods - if I have this in the wrong area, please feel free to move :D

Well I ended up at the YBS around 1:30 to see how my birds had gone and I must say I was a little supprised :shock:

I ended up winning the Novice section for

1st place Cream Back Hen
1st place Cream Back Cock
1st place Charcoal Hen
1st place Grey Cock

As a result I won the

Best Novice Hen
Best Novice Cream Back
Best Novice Grey Cock
Best Black Series (this bird beat the A grade birds as well)

There were roughly 170+ birds on the bench and it was a great day.
