Aussie Finch Forum

So glad to see that the bird did the right thing by you. Great colour and the markings are there, if less intense than in the parent. Did the parent turn out to be a cock?

I look forward to when molting. Color will score after the first molt.

First test photos.

Coming along nicely. You did not say if the bird was a cock or hen?

Very Nice Finches

I planted them separately to understand where the male and the female.

His parents pearl gray. He likely will be gray after molting

It's his father.

Still kept their lovely feather pattern.

Well if it's sex linked the young un will be a hen. Looking good. But then the parent cock is one very striking bird. Congratulations I am very
