Showing Society Finches

[Icearstorm]

I'm interested in showing up to three of my society finches in Florida or southern Georgia, but am unsure how to do so. I looked at the NFSS website, but didn't see any shows scheduled for 2018. Do I have to be a member to access the information?

As far as the show standards go, does anyone have photos of quality self societies? I found a few photos of champion birds, but they weren't large enough to properly see.

Do any of my birds have a chance? They have a mix of European and American self traits, which could be a problem. Here are the three I'm considering:

They don't look as good without bright lighting. If I show them, would I be allowed to attach a thin strip of LED lights on the roof of the show cage, or would that be considered cheating?

I'm not sure about the other things, but your birds look show-worthy to me.

The show process is probably different here in the states, but I imagine the standards are similar. I like Coco's cheek markings; even if that doesn't fit the standard, he's still a lovely looking bird.

I imagine I'll have some more of my pair's babies available in 6-8 months. I'm not too far from you, so that could be a possibility.

They are gorgeous!

[wildbird]

Icearstorm, That would be great, if I don't have any by then! I would like to get a couple of nice males. From what I have read, they are active, interesting and get along well together. Did you go to the Jacksonville bird fair?

[wildbird]

Icearstorm, Just saw your post about the bird fair. Do you know if Ceasars was the vendor with the Javas and the colors.

Could I get some as well?

Two males should get along well. My males squabble a bit when they're breeding, but I imagine that's because they see each other as rivals, rather than mates.

I don't know, but if I remember correctly, this was the business card:

Sure, if I've got them available. This year's going to be a bit crazy, so I'll have to see how the bird-breeding goes.
