s25ale 4 Report post Posted September 24, 2011 Hello everyone I'm Hayley from Nottinghamshire, I currently keep a variety of birds including pet type Zebra Finch which i have sucessfully bred over the last 3 years. I went to my first show today and was amazed by all the different mutations and the size of the birds. I'm hoping to get a couple of pairs of exhibion birds and join the Zebra Finch Society - can anyone tell me when subscriptions start? I dont want to join and pay now if subcriptions are due again in the next couple of months. Look forward to talking to you all and hopefully pick up lots of hints and tips Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

s25ale 4 Report post Posted September 24, 2011 Thanks Paul, I think I will wait until Janauary - I need to get the birdroom sorted and aquire some stock. Great photos of the Gainsborough show, thats the one I went to today. I had a look at the silient auction birds but thought i would be better visiting a breeder.
