Welcome to the forum. How big is huge? Not many people hand rear finches, but you can get them quiet by hand feeding them greens.

Hi, welcome to the forum.

You might be able to get a couple of hand-raised Neophema parrots that can co-habitate with finches, but you'll struggle to find tame finches.

Hello,
The aviary will be built over a pond area that is enclosed with pool fencing.

9mt x 10mt x 2.3mt high.

That is huge. Do you intend to put potted plants in there? As potted Bamboo and Grass plants would go well.
