Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 17 years ago
EXHIBITING BIRDS by Dr. A.E. Decoteau As a forum for aviculturists who enjoy meeting with their fellow birdlovers and exchanging information, cagebird shows are becoming increasingly popular. This book presents an authoritative introduction to exhibiting and competition. Providing a highly informative guide which covers all aspects of bird exhibiting, the text tells how to prepare for a show, explains the method of organization and details the classification for showing; it also provides standards for some of the most popular cagebirds. Dr. Decoteau, a well known judge of parrots and exotics, outlines a model Schedule of Classes and proposes guidelines for judging those birds, notably parrots which are more and more frequently entered in shows. Many fullcolor illustrations provide a "you are there" glimpse into this exciting aspect of bird hobby.
