Have guilt now

Well I spat it big time today with these bloody Gold finches . Caught them tormenting the baby zebs still in the nest , netted them and took them to the pet shop.
Now I havent heard any noises from the babies all afternoon but kinda feel guilty for being so hasty with the Golds.

you do what you have to, to get the best result. if it involves removing or replacing birds that are not working out so be it dont feel guilty its for the best deb, its better to have birds breeding than none at alll i say....pete
