I'm from New Zealand and you don't know how difficult it is to obtain a license to breed Kakariki. Seeing all the different colours of them is mindblowing as well, as Kakariki means green and is the only colour you will find them in here.

I have Blue Caps, Gouldians, and painted finches in an aviary together as well as a pair of bourke parrots. They all get along fine but moslty keep to themselves. We used to have diamond firetails too, but the gouldians were very aggressive towards them.

@mariocisneros911 2 жыл бұрын

And if you can't have an aviary , a large flight cage can hold 6 to 16 little finches. 1 larger pair is alright if their demeanor is peaceful. Size anywhere from 24" to 42" or 60" horizontal X nearly the same vertical . Its usually better to start small and gain experience

I'm also a Kiwi. Some years ago I had aviaries with several species of finches. I found that you could normally only keep one pair of Cuban finches per aviary. As the males are very territorial toward other Cuban males. Likewise the little black finch from Brazil, I can't just remember the name of them. They were very secretive and usually nested near the ground. Both the Cuban finches were OK with other species, but wouldn't tolerate others of their own kind. Nice video Mr Aviary, well done.

I think having hookbills with any softbill is not a good idea even a chill Tiel will throw a bite that can damage a dove or Finch. In my aviary I have a 3 Red Rump Parrots, 10 male budgies 2 females, 8 Bourke's parrot, 1.1 Grasskeets, Scarlet Chested/Splendid Parrot & 2 Cockatiels both females. I have to watch the Red Rump males but enough space for their squabbles to end. Budgie males are good in a community. But budgie females can be more aggro & they have a harder bite bc they carve into trees to make nests in the wild.

@jlexoticbirds4134 2 жыл бұрын

I do not recommend keeping Budgies with any finches at all. Even in a large space it is still risky and female budgies are also very aggressive. Budgies also have a very different diet from finches and need pellets and vegetables. The seed we feed finches is has very high fat content and is unhealthy for a budgies digestive system if used as the base diet. Seed for budgies can only be as treats or foraging. Otherwise if seed is given to a Budgie as a diet base, It is likely to cause Fatty liver disease and other health issues including obesity.

@MrAviary 2 жыл бұрын

Every bird needs more variety than a seed-only diet, I always try mimic nature as much as possible and a bit weary of pellets. Indeed budgies can be very dominant.
