After a couple of months planning, we are delighted to announce the launch of our newly designed website. We wanted a website to better collaborate with our members, breeders and fanciers.

We value your opinion. Please contact us to let us know what you think of our website - all comments and feedback are welcome. Please let us know if you cannot find something or would like to make any suggestions for new information or topics. Many thanks for your ongoing support and we look forward to hearing from you. There are still some empty pages. We are busy writing and coding this website. We apologize for this inconvenience.

BECOME A MEMBER TODAY!
We are offering you an opportunity to participate in a relaxing sport with family and friends. An opportunity, whether you are a youngster, adult or a senior citizen, to experience interaction with farmyard animals of our natural world and to take pride in that accomplishment and to share it with others in the companionship and knowledge of common interest. This sport and hobby can involve the whole family for fun by spending time together with feathered or furred friends. It can be a few birds, rabbits or goats in the backyard or several on a farm, be in the confines of a city dwelling or the wide open spaces of the country. AOBA can provide a respite from the hectic pace of today's life, a link back to nature and the joy of simply observing some of Mother Nature's most colourful and elegant feathered and furred creations.
With best regards,
TEAM AOBA
