Advice Needed
Posted: 18 Feb 2015, 20:53
HI, I hope someone can help with some advice about canaries I mainly have finches. Nov 2013 I bought a female canary and decided to get a male I was sold 3 females before I got the male. My aviary is 10 mtrs long by 2 mtrs I have about 32 finches in there. The male mated with all the females and Jan 2014 they all had babies and again in April 2014.. I rehomed all the males with family and kepted the female finches. I also was given two red factor females so now have 10 females in the aviary. I let one of the females mate with my male which I have him by himself in a small aviary. They had two babies which I have also put in the aviary not sure what sex they are.
My question is we are going away and a friend bought me back one of the males I gave him last year as he was disturbing his finches. I would like to keep him but can't put him in with the other male. Would he be okay in the aviary or would he start mating with all the females.
Does anyone else keep both sexes of canaries in a aviary.
Thanks for any advice.
