Show success
Update November 7 2008
Well, I've been busy. This has stopped me from updating my website recently, but now I can update my own show results.
I've spent the last few months training my song team. Essentially, this involves introducing males to their show cages and conditioning them to travel and show experiences. My birds have been traveling between friends houses and also visiting my school, where they spend the day at the back of my biology class.
All this effort resulted in some success. I had eight males to take to shows. A fellow club member, our president Mark Bange kindly helped me by taking some of them to shows in Baltimore and New Jersey. About 50% have sung, two in particular have scored full marks for freedom. My greatest acheivement is 'Harrison" D444 a yellow ticked bird who won first in class at my own Baltimore MASCOT show last weekend. I was awarded Best Novice prize for his 91.5 score. This was a great show with 188 entries from twenty or more exhibitors. If you live in the Baltimore area and are intereseted in American Singers, you should get in contact with MASCOT!!
I am now turning my attention to the up comming breeding season. What pairings will I make? How will I condition birds for the breeding season, lighting and feeding programs? Check back in the future for updates.
