Don't rush them, they'll be ready when they're ready
but they will be flapping a bit

they pop there heads out to see and the last egg hatched today i saw it and i saw its tiny wings so cute and one fawn baby has a pinkish beak whu is that i have never seen it before from my breedings

Stay away from them if you wan't to keep them,you know they hatched so concentrate on feeding the parents,go pick some green seed heads and put in for the parents.

but be careful of pesticides and plants that have been 'watered' by a cat/dog/any other animal ;)

green seed heads i dont have any but i feed the egg and biscuit

a baby finch is out and the parrents are not going near it what should i do guys? and it has a pink beak why?

just don't panic, they'll feed it when it needs it. Parent finches don't incubate their young once fledged. Zebras will usually have black or pink beaks depending on the mutation when they fledge, and these will colour up later.
