We do have judged shows here, have never attempted it but have been to them years ago. One of the better ones was a club show in St Petersburg, the club stopped doing this wonderful show where the did the judging and you could buy supplies and birds as well. It is shame. It was one of those you would look forward to twice a year.

I have been encouraged to try doing some. Might be something to look into.

Might be worth considering cindy as you've got some quality birds from what I've seen, England is quite big on the show scene and some of your birds would probably do quite well especially the grasskeets at the parrot society show where the national is also held on the same day :mrgreen:

I'm sure no doubt you've probably got some good exhibitions over in the states,

The national finch and softbill society over your side in the states I believe have a good show but don't know how far away that would be from you as the states is just a wee bit bigger than England :mrgreen:
