Just saying hello and I’m excited to get some great help from all of u with questions regarding my finches.

Welcome to the forum. Apart from the Goldfinches do you keep any other types?

Painted finches
Yellow Siskin
All pairs
And just had four baby gouldians

Nice variety of finches there. Congratulations on the babies. How do you house your finches?
LML

Thank you .
I house the gouldians, painted finch pair , goldfinch pair and a strawberry cock finch in one big cage .
Haven’t had any problems with them all together for over 2 years
I have a green singer pair in a flight cage to them selfs
I have a yellow Siskin cock with two hens in a flight cage to them selfs

Sounds like you have worked out what is best for your finches. Which is exactly what we should all strive to do. How big is the mixed cage?
LML

This is the mix finches

Nice and neat setup, looks like you though it well through
Thanks

Looks like you have them well protected from cold winds. Good on you. Can only see box nests, have you tried ball nests for the painteds? Mine prefered them. Enjoy.
LML

Thank you guys , yeah I got them in the perfect location . I actually do have two ball nests and the painting finch has Claimed both the ball nests . They keep going back and forth with both of them .
I don’t no if that’s normal Behaviour.
If you look at the photo there both
