Thanks Lauren! I have taken on more responsibility with the show this year... I've merely been a spectator in previous years, but this time I am helping set up the show for judging, sales, and will have my own booth set up to sell some of my birds. Jumping in with both feet this time!
Isn't Edmonton wonderful?! I can't wait until I live there!

I actually haven't done much this year, but in the process of gearing up again. Powerwashing cages, new pairings, etc. Lots of work!

Waxbill lover: i am curious as to what time the bird sale starts? Is it on sunday or after the judging on saturday at 12:00?
Thanks and also i am super excited about the show this year, i went last year and it was very very fun! I am planning on buying a lot of finches to start a little collection...any idea if they will have diamond firetails at all? They habe been on my hotlist for a while but i strongly dislike buying from a pet store where age is unknown and health is very unkown lol

The sale portion starts at 1200 saturday. I don't know what types of birds other people are bringing. I am bringing gouldians, owls, and societies. I'm sure there will be some other booths where people are selling some different types of birds.
Make sure you come and say hi. I will be there

No idea what table I'll be at. I will have my signs up. For my gouldians I won't budge on the price at $75 each, because thats VERY reasonable price for gouldians. Others at the show will be charging the same. Its pretty much the going rate.
I do not have pairs of owls. I have 3 young birds, 1 male for sure, and 2 unknowns. They are all related. $90/each. May drop the price on them, depending on how the sale goes.
What is your name?

Hey i was only joking about the price you know, $75 is very reasonable, i do not expect any special deals, just a joke. Also if i can find someone else who can give me a definite female i may be interested in the male. Do you have any normal (rh,gb,pb) pairs of gouldians available? lastly my name is Talal(pronounced tawlol), what is your name?
thanks and looking forward to meeting you!

I don't have any pairs of anything. All birds I have are related as siblings at this point. I do have one normal male, one orange head male, and several females.
Name is on the bottom of my posts. Brady.
Looking forward to seeing you there too.
