Hunter Valley Auction 14

The Hunter Valley Budgerigar Society Inc proudly presents the Wally Capper Auction, a rare and highly anticipated event. It offers fanciers across Australia the chance to secure elite exhibition budgerigars from one of the hobby’s most respected breeders.

After a lifetime devoted to breeding and exhibiting, Wally Capper has made the difficult decision to part with his birds following medical advice related to bird dust exposure. While this is a reluctant reduction, it creates a once-in-a-generation opportunity to access the very best of his stud.

The “Top 20” – Elite Selection

At the heart of this auction is Wally’s Top 20 select birds, representing the absolute pinnacle of his breeding program. These birds feature outstanding size, feather, and type. This makes them ideal for breeders aiming to elevate their own lines.

Many of these birds remain untried, meaning their genetic potential is yet to be fully realised. This offers buyers the chance to unlock new success in the breeding room. Backed by a championship pedigree, these birds have been sourced and curated by a 5-time National winner. This ensures quality that speaks for itself.

Varieties on offer include Opaline Cinnamonwing, Cinnamonwing, Greywing, Dilute, Opaline, Dominant Pied, Clearbody, Violet, Spangle, Lacewing, and more. This provides depth and diversity for both specialist and all-round breeders.

A Personal Note from Wally

“This isn’t a decision made lightly, but health must come first. These 20 birds represent the best I have, and I truly believe they can help take another breeder to the winner’s circle.”
