Kept them years ago...kept throwing the young out :evil: so eventually on sold them but they never built roosting nest...but they did sit in nest with others like spice finches of night time...

No camping nest for Pictorellas. Any attempt to nest should be a breeding attempt. They love to put small pieces of broken cuttlebone into the nest chamber too.
