A little background on Brian
Brian first taster into birds and bird keeping was when he was just 10 years of age when he saw a friends Dad get his son some Budgies, soon after Brian's Mum got him some Budgies and a small shed for the garden.

In the time that followed Brian's birds both bred and sold very well, he kept birds for some time until he began to court his wife Barbara and he stopped keeping them all together when he got married. Eventually Brian started keeping birds again by keeping Cockatiels and other species, soon he felt he wanted to show his birds and has slowly but steadily moved from Beginner to Intermediate with his best result so far being his first Championship Certificate at the 2006 Notts & Derby BS, this was acheived with a Dominant Pied Green bird. Brian has also done fairly well recently with his Spangles.

Brian has not really got a favourite colour Budgerigar but if asked he would say he really likes the Yellow Faced Spangles but he feels as long as bird has got the show quality he desires colour doesn't really come into it.
