You will need a third outdoor aviary to move your indoor birds into which means you'll have room for more!!!!!! :D
I would love to build another aviary, but I don't see it coming anytime soon.

Cindy, The folks who put on the show are Tom and Tracy Loop. Their annual show is in LaPlace, LA. They wanted to extend it to 2 a year so had this one, a first, in their hometown of Ponchatoula, LA. I asked Tracy if they are going to have this one again and she told me it depended on the feed back she gets from the breeder, dealers. If every one made money and will come back then it will be a permanent addition to the LaPlace show. The LaPlace Show is a lot smaller and hardly no finches. Now if these dealers did well maybe they will also book the LaPlace show. Keeping my fingers crossed. But I'll tell you this, I would take a day trip to see G&G Exotic Aviary again.

I will keep an eye out for G & G at any of our upcoming shows. It sounds as if her birds were the best there. You did really good this weekend. How are all the newcomers settling in?

Zebra, Gouldians, Java, CBM Shaft tail & Grasskeets

Great price on those shaftails... Don't blame you for grabbing those. The star will be glad to heve a mate :D
Marriana is just a 45 minute drive up the road from me. North where you pick up I-10. If they have the show next year maybe I will sell, if not I will definately come shop :lol: Hammond is a 5 hour dive for me.
