Hello to all I'm planning to build a finch aviairy in the future & would like to know if someone can tell me if all of the species of finches are compadable or is their some kinds to avoid?
I plan to make a natural type setting for them & so I have to choose plant species that are non-poisonus to them & make the bottom easy to keep clean.years ago I had an orange wing amazon parrot but after building (dubbed the gorilla cage) a monster cage for it my daughter developped a bird allergy so I had to part company with the bird.I'm not impressed with store bought cages as for the price they offer little movement for the birds.being a tradesman I can build just about anything , so construction is not a problem.
Basicly I want to run the length of the wall & intend to use uv/heat lamps to brighten the place up as well as promote plant growth.
But after I get the display built I don't want to spend the money buying species that could be disruptive to each other.Birds like people don't always get along with each other.
Whats your experiances with the finches?
