Why want my zebra finches mate?

Question

I have two zebra finches a male and a female they will not mate.The only time they are with each other are when they go into the nest for the night.

Please help!

Answer 1

either add more of them or just wait.  i have 2 zebra finches and i got them to mate.  just be careful.  sometimes the finches will eat the eggs.  they might also not like each other.

Answer 2

Add more!  Zebras do best in colonies and plenty of cage space.  Provide multiple nest sites...and they will pair up and go to town.
