November December NCS Journal
The National Cockatiel Society was organized first and foremost to educate Cockatiel owners on the care of their beloved friends. Over the years, the NCS has expanded its purpose to include:
-
The education of its members on the proper care, handling, nutrition and breeding of cockatiels.
- educational and informative articles through its bi-monthly Journal.
- Support of avian research related to cockatiel nutrition, reproduction and the study of disease.
- Encouragement for the breeding of superior color mutations through the study of genetics.
- Encouragement of selective breeding, closed banding and record keeping.
- Establishment of a standard of excellence for judging the ideal cockatiel.
- Establishment of an NCS Judges Panel of qualified judges to maintain a uniform quality in judging governed by the standard.
- An annual National Cockatiel Society show each year;
- Encouragement of ethical, thoughtful and constructive interactions among its members and fellow aviculturists.
