BUDGERIGAR SOCIETY OFFICIAL CLOSED CODED RING COLOUR 2022

In recent months, the Budgerigar Society has received a considerable number of concerns from show organisers and judges alike about the potential of non-BS or non-Area Society rung birds being entered into Young Bird classes at 2022 shows. The main theme of these concerns is how difficult it will be to identify non-BS issued rings without checking every bird individually, which is clearly impractical. However, should an exhibit not wearing a BS or Area Society ring remain unidentified until ring checking, the implications for show officials and judges is significant. In response to these concerns and to avoid the possible mis-identification of non-BS or non-Area Society rung Young Bird entrants at 2022 shows, BS Official Rings for 2022 will be the colour PINK.
