Finch help!!!!!!!!!!

Question

I have 4 zebra finches and 1 gouldien finch.

Can i put them in the same cage??

please help!

Answer 1

Well if the cage is big enough so as to give them their own territories, then you can try it.  It really depends if they are males or females and if they are in a breeding mode.  All birds breed at certain times of the year and some of them become nasty to others at that time.  Or some of them may already be paired up and so the extra bird or birds may cause a problem.  The best thing to do is put them all in a large finch flight cage  with extra seed cups, extra waterers and plenty of millet spray to keep them busy.  Keep the cage clean and keep an eye on them frequently.  If any fights ensue, you'll have to remove the offender .  Some birds will fight to the death over a mate or food, so make sure there is lots of space for them.  Best wishes

Answer 2

all male? all female? not sure. they can get territorial. if you see any fights separate them into their own cages. look up indorductions. that should help.  

Answer 3

Hi,

Yeah sure they are all finches so will be fine and because they are softbills then they can't physically hurt each other.

Answer 4

Yes, they should be fine.

I was researching and most of the problems are about the same thing.

The answers are pretty much yes.
