Cage & Aviary Birds Magazine

4 October 2023

Were you are the 2023 Club Show? The great BS event, just held, may be the last to be staged at the famous Dome in Doncaster – and the budgie community made it a hugely special occasion. We have the highlights (more to come in future issues.) Loads of other show news, too, including a preview of the unique softbill show-cum-sale in East Anglia next month. One softbill you won’t see there is the rare white-eye we profile this week: an island beauty from Indonesia, now being safeguarded in captivity. We learn about the risks entailed in the thoughtless pursuit of new colour variations in parrots and consider the ins and outs of bought birds for showing and breeding. Plus: in-depth articles for canary and budgie fans.
