  1. They look like the bird in this picture, but the picture looks edited to make the colors brighter or different on 2 of the birds.


  2. Lady Gouldian finches

  3. The birds shown in the picture are Gouldian Finches,(Erythrura goldiae)

    L-R. Orange Headed,Red Headed,Black Headed,

    These birds originate from Australia and are one of their most colourful finches.

    Over the years there have been many different mutations bred.

    They are quite difficult to breed, the best way is to put their eggs under Bengalese and use these as foster parents,

  4. Gouldian Finches. Almost every pet store has them, they're quite lovely.

  5. Gouldian Finch Species Profile



    Traits:  Gouldian finches often develop a strong bond with their owner and are known for their loyalty. However, the Goundian finch also craves time with other birds. Gouldian finch owners notice these pet birds are intelligent and constantly watching the actions of their caretakers. Gouldian finches are social birds, so when keeping a pet Gouldian finch, it is best to have more than one, possibly two of the same s*x to avoid breeding.

    Behavior/Health Concerns:  The Gouldian finches are susceptible to egg binding, constipation and mites. Provide a varied diet for your Gouldian finch that consists of seed, greens, cuttlebone and egg food. Finches can be sensitive to diet changes and cold temperatures, so they need time to acclimate to changes in their environment. Gouldian finches require more food during a molt. House Gouldians in a large cages to allow for plenty of room for flight. Gouldian finches also enjoy bathing as often as the owner will allow.

    “The Gouldian finch comes in a variety of colors. Breederes refer to it as a variety of mutations. Black-headed, purple-chested green body or red-headed, purple breasted green body are considered normal colors. Mutations can be any other color combination.”
