FINCHES! Ffffffffffffffffffffincheszszszszszs!!!!!!

[GaleriaGila]

I have longed for more birds over the years, buttttttt...

I just don't have time/resources/space/life expectancy (lol) to take on another parrot. Plus, the Rb is so intolerant, aggressive, and evil that it just wouldn't work.

Solution? Finches! Specifically, a pair of Zebra Finch hens, discovered and obtained on impulse (long story). They're in quarantine in a far end of the condo now but... I am enchanted!

They're wonderful. Beautiful, energetic, BRDZSZSZS!
I have challenges - converting to pellets, maximizing diet, designing cage, finding toys...
But just LOOK AT THEM!

This is a new adventure. It might be good for some of you in a similar situation.

One of my great aunts raised finches.

I loved watching and listening to them.

They are so sweet! I want all the birdies. HRH Mr. Fluffypants makes enough poops to keep me in check. But they're such cute little poops...

They're adorable!

I once had a boss who kept finches. She dubbed the evil one “Bluebeard” because he killed his numerous wives. As a result of these tales, I do not trust finches. They may look tiny and innocent, but you never know what evil lurks….

I looooove Zebra Finches! I used to have a bunch. Cute as the dickens and they make the sweetest noises.
