    As Nick says if it your intention to breed for the showbench buy your birds from someone who breeds and shows their birds if you are purely breeding for fun and trying to breed different colours and combos ect crack on these will be fine

     

    When buying from auction you dont know what colours birds are also carring

     

    if you save your cash you can go to area shows and pick good birds up for as little as a tenner in the bird sale section

    if i have any spare birds when you are ready to start up you are very welcome to have a look

     

    i would definatley try to get birds from breeders who can give you some backround of the birds you buy try getting to a couple of zebra shows aswell to give you an idea of the birds standard and the breeders who breed them nowadays and the different mutations available most have good sales sections aswell
