Code Of Practice For The Housing of Cage Birds. The Revised Code has only
one change for private aviculture: all-wire cages for transportation are not permitted. Copies are available
from the Bureau of Animal Welfare, DSE, PO Box 500, East Melbourne 3002. Bird Sale organising
bodies may still have supplies for distribution. Bird Sales organisers should also keep up
to date with the Code of Practice for Bird Sales. |

2011 BIRD SALES NOT YET APPROVED |
Travel &
Birds
From time to time, aviculturists have the opportunity
to obtain birds whilst away from home. This may be a holiday or a trip to a
Bird Sale.
The Code of Practice states that birds must travel in
the passenger section of the vehicle, NOT in the boot or luggage
compartment.
