What do you
feed your Finches?
We feed a varied diet of our Finch Seed, plus greens,
eggs, vitamin supplements,
spray millet and always have cuttlebone available.
How often do
you clean the cage?
We generally change newspaper for paired finches every
other day, while hosing
out aviaries daily.
How
often should I change the water?
Fresh water can't be overdone. I
recommend fresh water daily for all birds.
If I want to
keep 2-4 finches what is the minimum cage size?
Gouldians like length rather than height. So I
would recommend at least 36" L x
18" W x 18" H. If you have the room a longer cage
would be even better. They
like the length for flying.
Can I
keep other birds with my Gouldians?
Yes you can. Though not any bird. They are
best kept with small to medium sized
Finches such as Zebras, Cordon Blues, Societies, and my
favorite Owls.
How long do Gouldians live?
A lot will depend on you and your care for them.
If you feed a good diet and
keep them healthy at least 8-10 years.
