Colly 6 Report post Posted September 17, 2012 Hello my name is Col from Leicestershire and I have been keeping zebras and canarys in a mixed aviary for a few years now. I recently was shown some penquin zebras and fell in love with them straight away I have manger to get one pair but I also love the orange breasted and black breasted so my plan is to try to move in the direction of these three types of finches in between showing my bull terrier Thanks and a great site Col Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Colly 6 Report post Posted September 22, 2012 Thanks all for the reply I have heard a lot about Stafford show when is it and where Thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Emmy 528 Report post Posted September 22, 2012 Hi Col Today is the zebra Finch Society show - the next Stafford show is on Sunday 14th October I'm sure there was a map posted for the previous show at Stafford showing directions - I think it was posted a while ago in one of Gary's posts (Zebraman) but I'm sure someone will be able to say if its held in the same place in October. Emmy ps if you click on the zff calendar at the top of the page it usually has the information about shows for the current month. Hope this helps Just found the post from July hope this link works Stafford Show 8th July 2012 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Emmy 528 Report post Posted September 22, 2012 Hi again Col If you click on the 'zff gallery' and look for the photographs by zebraman - in Gary's photographs there is one that was taken at the July show at Stafford (no.) this will give you an idea of the size of the hall would be great to go there.
