African
Love Bird Society Show Classifications
These are the
official show classifications for ALBS-affiliated
shows. For large National level shows, the Rare
and Eye-Ring Species are shown in a separate
division from the Peachfaced, but for most
smaller, local shows all the sections are
considered to be within a single Love Bird
division. The ALBS Love Bird Classifications are available for download for use at your next ALBS Affiliated show.
These
classifications provide a way for the judges and
staff to organize the Love Birds that are entered
in a show. The judge compares all the birds that
are entered according to their color class. The
best birds in each class then compete by Section,
then finally the best birds from the Sections
compete in their Division.
For example, a
Green Peachfaced would first be compared to any
other Green Peachfaced in the show. If the bird
does well in its specific color Class, it would
then go on to compete against the other
"Best in Class" birds within its
Section. If the bird does well in its Section, it
will then go on to compete against the best birds
from the other Sections for the honor of a place
on the "Top Bench," with the very best
bird overall being named "Best Love Bird in
Division."
