The BIRDIEBREAD table!

This vendor was selling 100% cotton shirts and dresses from HI that were just beautiful-I traded him BIRDIEBREAD for two baby sundresses with Flamingos and parrots,lol

This is a vendor who brings her assistant-guess what she makes and sells...

There were mainly smaller birds at this show, some of the breeders said that the larger parrots are all on eggs or busy hand-feeding right now.

I have several more pics of bird food vendors, show birds, etc. so, if anyone wants to see them, I can post a few more later!

Here are a few more from the Manatee Show!

These are bird food and seed distributors so they had a really good variety and good prices too!

This is my new best friend and customer, Trixie, who munched on BIRDIEBREAD cones while her owner walked around the show.

Paramount Cages, I bought my tiel cages from them a few years ago-great prices. They always donate to the FWCAS Grand Raffle at our show also.

I've got more, if you want to see them....
Here's a terrible picture of Pat but her rosy bourkes and red rumps are cute!
