Keiron Kent 23 Report post Posted March 15, 2012 Hi Mark (Linford)lol. not at all, I have all his family members at home if i remember right Chris was after breeding some size into his stud, so I happily let the cock bird go, he also had a few other good sized mutations from me which he’s told me are doing the business for him.!Cameron’s birds have settled in well. He has already planned out which he’s pairing together.lol. His ZFS rings turned up yesterday as well.! Keiron Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
zebba 'D' 43 Report post Posted March 15, 2012 hi linford,Do you think its show bench quailty, im not sure what is to be honest i havent shown birds before i was just lookin to build my stock and size up first keiron sorted me out with some cracking birds which have all done me well.Only thing is i forgot to ring the chick up it has split ring on but no zfs ring, gutted about that.Chris Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
paulm 119 Report post Posted March 15, 2012 Best things to do is studie the show standard to get an idea of the shape then when you can enter your birds into a show or two and see what they look like against the other birds at the show,you never know you might just get a nice surprise.Paul.

Zebraman 267 Report post Posted March 16, 2012 I agree, you need to compare your birds against others before you will really know what direction you need to go in.It's also a good ides to get the opinion from a show judge as well.After saying all this I don't show my birds, but I do try to follow the show bench standard.Gary.

Emmy 528 Report post Posted March 16, 2012 Chris said Only thing is i forgot to ring the chick up it has split ring on but no zfs ring, gutted about thatDoes this mean you cant enter a bird into any competion if they are not ringed would it be acceptable if it was a split ring on the bird if the show wasnt organised by the ZFS?

Keiron Kent 23 Report post Posted March 19, 2012 Hi Emmy,Im not 100% sure but i think i read somewhere that you can enter birds that haven't been rung into the Adult classes held by the ZFS.Im sure someone on here will have a better insight into your questionRegardsKeiron Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
