Aussie Finch Forum

hi just bought 2 pairs on zebras( one normal pair is white and the other one is normal) i would like to breed them, so when is best time to breed them? Is it to late to start?


thanks...

breed them now if you want.the only not good time really is winter as it is cold,and hens can get egg bound.put them together give them what they require and see what happens.

I have finches on eggs now but come winter i will take the nest out and give them a spell

spring is when they start to show interest in nesting. summer and autumn are the better seasons for breeding.
as Gomer said try to avoid any breeding in winter due to the problems in can cause the adult birds

thanks for the info guys, i will buy som nest and materials in the weekn and see what will happen... ill update u guys if anything happens..

That sounds great, shouldn't take them long
