There is a site on www somewhere that I found accidently and lost
with a multitude of recipes for finches and it is FREE.

If you find it again I'd be really interested in looking at it. The only problem with some of the homemade recipes is that theyr'e usually not research based so it's difficult to pick the valuable recipes without someone with credibility recommending them. But interesting nonetheless.

if you get the special deal, the postage for the diet book is free. so it's $151 + $11 for shipping.

Agreed the ones on the web should just be a base recipe , common sense and a few ingredient alterations and they can be useful.
