SwiftVERE takes flight at Kiepie Herholdt’s Prestige Auction
This past weekend, the SwiftVERE team ruffled feathers at the much-anticipated Prestige Hooked-Bill Bird Auction on behalf of Kiepie Herholdt.
Powered by SwiftVEE, Africa’s leading online auction platform for livestock and game, SwiftVERE proudly brings poultry and other exotic bird auctions online. The SwiftVERE team was thrilled to be part of such a prestigious event!
An Exquisite Showcase
SwiftVERE, in collaboration with Vleissentraal Bloemfontein, was honoured to host Kiepie Herholdt on our platform, a revered name in the South African bird community and a legendary bird breeder.
With 117 lots on offer, the auction was a bird lover's paradise, featuring an array of rare mutations of Alexandrine Parakeets, Ringnecks, Slatyheaded Parakeets, Plumheads, and Moustache Parakeets.
Navigating Challenges in the Industry
Interestingly, the South African market for Ringneck Parakeets faces a unique challenge. With stringent regulations requiring permits for ownership and the export of these birds, the market demand is relatively low. Despite the hurdles, the Prestige Hooked-Bill Bird Auction served as a platform to educate and inspire enthusiasts, fostering a deeper appreciation for the species. The Moustache birds, another star of the show, proved to be both highly-priced and not easily accessible to the average South African enthusiast. These birds, adorned with distinctive facial markings, are a symbol of elegance and rarity, making them highly sought after by collectors, exporters and enthusiasts alike.
Soaring into the Future with SwiftVERE
The Prestige Hooked-Bill Bird Auction was a resounding success, bringing together passionate individuals and showcasing the incredible world of rare and exotic birds.
As we continue our journey in the world of online auctions, SwiftVERE eagerly anticipates connecting enthusiasts and breeders with opportunities to nurture their passion and contribute to the growth of the industry. The sky is the limit for SwiftVERE!
