Hi
After peoples experience on which species (aussie and foreign) will use nest boxes to breed in??
I dont have the time/space to have fully brushed aviaries at the moment and want to know which species will use the boxes.
I know zebs and longtails will, are there any other aussies species that will?
Native and foreign finches that will use nest boxes?

My painteds are always using nest boxes.
The parrotfinches seem to prefer them too.

Aberdeens and Cutthroats are appealing candidates!

Hopefully will have some in the coming months, not much happening at the moment because of the cold weather but are checking out nests regularly which is a good sign.
Yes he's pretty full on orders, I'm due to contact him again and see if I can pair up some of my spare boys
