How do you tell if a finch is going to give birth?

Question

I just wanted to know

Answer 1

They don't give birth, they lay eggs - but they are some signs you can look for that tell a female is laying, or ready to lay.

If you're up early in the morning, around day break, and you have a nest in your finch's cage - if she is beginning to lay you will definitely find her in the nest early in the morning.

If she's not in the nest yet, a sign to look for that tells she's ready to lay, is you'll see her tail visibly bobbing up and down as though she's trying to p**p.  It's a result of the contractions that occur to push the egg through the cloaca.

It's a subtle thing, though, because their tails will also often do this when they are sleeping or breathing heavily.

Answer 2

ask it if its pregnant.

Answer 3

Birds do not give birth.  They lay eggs.  The eggs will only hatch if they are fertilized.  If you have 2 birds in one cage, then there is a chance the egg can be fertilized.
