Meetings   Shows    

The Society strongly believes in the showing of birds, highlighting the standards to which breeders must attain, and demonstrating to new breeders what their birds should look like.

In the early days of the Society, there was a great deal of importance on the knowledge of genes, as many colours were not available and had to be bred - over over a period of years.  The club holds the high principles of pure breeding and not cross-breeding with other species, producing freaks and mongrels.

Show Days are highlights of the club events, with members travelling long distances to show their birds, often with trailer-loads of boxes - all trying for that purple ribbon!  Judges classes are also held regularly, in order that younger and newer members can assist at Shows, relieving the burden of the "older" judges who faithfully turn up each Show.

Sales Tables are there with a comprehensive range of all the latest products, and having a Veterinarian Surgeon for our Patron goes a long way to keeping us in touch with modern trends.  Dr Ron Woodhead is a great help to the Society, always willing to fill in should a guest speaker be unable to attend.

Meetings are held 4th Wednesday of each money in Dutton Park State School commencing 7.30pm.  Come early and get your sales table items first. Great specials! New club badges, year bird rings, raffle tickets, enter your birds for Table Show. Guest Speaker.   Magazines bi-monthly  $25pa Aust.
