Dear Member,

Well our Fiftieth Anniversary Annual Show has been and gone and what a wonderful
success it was. We had a very good entry of 335 birds with exhibitors from Bundaberg
Canary and Caged Bird Society, Fraser Coast Budgerigar Club and Queensland North
Budgerigar Breeders Club. We also had Rob and Michelle Vidler from Tamworth visit
although not exhibiting. Also great to see two of the clubs founding members in attendance.
Jim McBride our very first secretary, along with life member Ray Lentil.

Our esteemed judge Alan Rowe did a superb job of judging the exhibits and his pertinent
comments about the birds, was well received. Congratulations to Scott Eriksen for taking out
Grand champion of Show with his Cinnamonwing Sky Cock. A excellent example of the
variety that also came second at the Mackay Nationals. Scott was presented with the
Gourley Family Trophy by Jim. Opposite Sex of Show went to a lovely young Spangle
Opaline Cinnamon Green Hen of Terry and Kerry Huth’s. Full results are included later in
this newsletter.

Preceding the show, on the Saturday afternoon Alan Rowe gave an informative presentation
of his view of the birds that he judged at the World Budgerigar Organisation Show 2017 held
in Budapest, Hungary. The slide presentation of the European birds was an eye opener and
everyone who attended this presentation left with a renewed appreciation of the way the
birds are developing. Saturday evening saw us gather at the Park Avenue Tavern for a very
enjoyable meal and social get together.

Our attention now turns to our Young Bird Show to be held on the 5th May 2018. Follwed a
fortnight later by the preselection in Townsville for the Nationals being held in Penrith NSW.
Get your entries in, as if you don’t enter this show you have no chance of getting a bird to
the nationals. You may not think you have a bird worthy of the nationals, but the judges may
have a different opinion.

Although a little late is an informative article on preparation of birds specifically for the
Nationals, which is included further along in this newsletter. A very good peace of wisdom
that I came across recently is also included.

Don’t forget our upcoming auction, you should all have your entries in to Kev by now.

Cheers,
Russell Ogden

PREPARATION OF YOUR BIRDS FOR THE NATIONALS
1. Work on a time line back from the National Show, work on 12 weeks, this year the
   start date is the 3/3/2018. Aim for completion to be as close to the SQBBA pre-
   selection show (11 weeks), you have 1week spare for contingencies.

2.    Select the birds you want to prepare from the 10/3/2018, if you are not confident, ask
     for another breeder’s opinion. Make the following notes so you can keep records on
     the progress of your birds and what utensils do we need to use:

     Cocks                                        Hens
     Variety                                      Variety
     Ring #                                       Ring #
     Tails removed/cut                            Tails removed/cut
     Growth                                       Growth
     Flights removed/cut                          Flights/removed/cut
     Growth                                       Growth
     Spots removed                                Spots removed
     Growth                                       Growth
     Food                                         Food

     Do you put your birds into holding cages or work on them from the flights?

3. Work begins, tails first, books say allow 6-8 weeks, but from my experience allow
   8-10 weeks, you’re aiming to have tails dropped or pulled by the 24/3/2018 two
   weeks after assessment of your national candidates. Cut tails from the 10/3/18 if you
   do not want to pull, leave it 5cm long. Depending on how old the tail is, check the
   blood in the quill. If you have blood, this is a new tail and possibly still growing, do
   not remove, and work on only removing the dry quill tail only. By cutting you give
   the bird a chance to lose this tail naturally. If the tail has not dropped by the 24/3/2018
   then you have to remove it. Do not remove new tails growing. What is the most
   common fault with condition of birds leading up to the Nationals? Tails falling out!
   The 24/3/18 will give you 9weeks to the Nationals.

4. Baycox a 2day program on the weekend of the 7th/8th of April, ideally should be
   every 3 weeks. To prevent coccidiosis. Take water away early to ensure drinking,
   when water is replaced at lunch time, do the same for worming.

5. On the 24/3 Check problem flights, I tend to remove only the last 2-3 outside flights
   numbers six, seven and eight, I also cut these, so the birds will lose them naturally.
   Cut and leave 4cm on the 24/3. Check to see if tails have started growing. Books
   suggest 4-6 weeks to grow flights, experience indicates 5-7 weeks to grow, less for
   inside flights 1-5. This is for conformation.

6. Remove flights up to 1-2 weeks after cutting (31/3). Be careful here when removing.
   You now have 8 weeks to the Nationals. 1 week extra allowed.

7. Worm Birds, a 2day treatment, week commencing 14/4/2018. How are tails growing,
   how are flights growing? Growth; assist by applying Vegetable oil and or Vaseline.
Extra dipping of tails/flights in water also promotes growth faster, up to a ½ an inch
   more can be added in the same time frame. Do not spray on wet days!

8. Commence 3week dipping process, 21/4, 28/4 and 5/5. All birds get dipped. 10ml of
   Moxi per litre of water, use a 4ltr ice cream container, 2 litres of this mixture is
   sufficient in the container. Must be 3 week ends in a row, 7 days apart. This will also
   assist feather growth and feather condition of your budgerigars.

9. Depending on weather, winter is looming, and birds tend to go into a terrible moult,
   how can you assist their dietary needs. You need to increase protein. I started rolled
   oats in 2011, as this is one of the highest protein foods available to birds. Greens,
   vegetables and fruit can cause havoc when you get closer to grooming your birds for
   pre-selections. Reduce these now. Start protein from 7/4/2018. Spray your birds on
   sunny days not wet or overcast days!!!

10. Spots, remove 14/4/2018. Will take 3-5 weeks to regrow depending on feather of
    birds. Books say 2 weeks, I have allowed 6 weeks, feather on English birds are
    different, longer and wider, require more time to grow. What after tails and flights is
    the next most disappointing item not to have completed on your show birds??

11. Time for baycox again, 2day treatment, week commencing 28/4/2018.

12. Remember you have already adding to your spraying routine by completely dipping
    your show team. Spraying starts from the 7/4/2018 giving you 7 weeks, as you get
    closer to the pre-selection, the spraying goes from heavy to a mist. Use hot water to
    begin, in the 2 weeks closer to the preselection use cold water.

13. Week commencing 7/5/2018 worm your birds again for 2 days.

14. From 29/4/2018; start spraying with cold water, not hot; remember the spraying is less
    heavy now, mainly a mist. Two weeks to Pre-selection, 3 to National Show. Start to
    open pin feathers and remove wax slowly from flight and tail regrowth.

15. Week commencing 7th of May wash and rinse your birds in warm water with no more
    tears shampoo. Open pin feathers where showing all over bird. Clean blood off from
    washing using full cream milk. Use corn flower in head and body to absorb blood,
    this will dry and dissipate within 1-1.5 hours maximum or sooner depending on
    weather conditions. You will/may need to wash again closer to your club pre-
    selection show and again prior to the SQBBA preselection show.

16. Assess you team. On the 11/5/2018, final preparation is now completed, your club
    pre-selection awaits, wash and rinse again; for the SQBBA preselection use a feather
    on the morning of the show and spread vegetable/paraffin oil on the bird’s feet and
    beak. Do not remove spots as the careers will prepare birds selected to compete at the
    Nationals. Pack you team into the car and good luck at the pre-selection show.

If you require further information on removing/cutting or the growth of flights, tails or
spots on you show team I would only be so happy to assist. Blood feathers, pin feathers
can cause problems I will explain and show you how to use full cream milk, corn flower,
shampoo and rinsing to remedy a problem prior to any preselection. I can also assist on
opening pin feathers, tail and flight feathers if required. What I have listed above is a
process of preparing budgerigars for a National Show, it has worked for me, you do not
have to use this, but I hope you can all take something from this information. Please call
me if you require further information or displays on the above information listed, I will be
happy to help you.

Some Words of Wisdom from a Fellow
    Budgie Breeder :- Stephen Thompson

It has been 4 years as a budgie breeder and I think
                 I’m starting to get it.
 It’s about the bird that you breed, not the one that
                        you buy.
           It’s about actions, not auctions.
    It’s about asking questions until the AH-HA
   moment when you understand, not believing in
                everything you are told.
   It’s about looking at your birds with a glass of
           wine, not whining about others.
    It’s about the joy of fellowship, not political
                        bullshit.
It’s about dealing with setbacks, not dummy spits.
It’s about selling a bird that can help a beginner do
better, not something your glad to get rid of sooner.
   It’s about working out what their behaviour is
   telling you, not thinking you are always right.
Above all, it’s about a bird that has the potential to
 reach an unreachable ideal, so we try to get there
  learning all the way. Happily knowing we never
 will. This is what keeps us interested and excited.
          This is the joy of having a hobby.
           I think I’m starting to “Get It”
