I love your setting with both outdoor and indoor rooms for the birds. The sun is the best vitamin source for their health. Great. I just have a question, how do you feed them water? Do you happen to have a solution for the least maintenance but fresh water source for them?

Birdnerd, how hot does it get where you are? I have seen a few Breeder's with outdoor Aviaries having their birds die this year due to 117 degrees in Florida. I live in Texas about 45mins. North of Dallas. Our backyard can reach 120 ° in the summer due to concrete heating up & it never cools off until Fall & winter time.

Hi Chris, I love your videos! Can you tell me, is there any significance in the colouring on the beak? Do males have a reddish beak, and the females have a bit of black shading near the tip of their beak?

@birdnerd 3 жыл бұрын

Are you referring to gouldian finches? If so the females entire beak turns black when they are ready to breed and the males beaks turn a pearly white.

My Gouldians have nested in a basket nest (round) will they be successful or is it too shallow and kick the young out?

@birdnerd 4 жыл бұрын

Yes they should be ok.

Hi Chris, I'm back. I have a young pair who have mated and they suddenly discovered the nest box. The Red Head male has been very attentive and has been very busy the whole time making the nest. My hen, who's partly red head sat in the nest box for the past 3 weeks, and I finally decided to have a peek in the nest box last Sunday. She had 2 eggs, however I now know they are not fertile. She stopped siting on the nest a few days ago now. This is their first nest, so I know to be patient, and we may be lucky the next time 'round. My question is, should I remove the eggs or will they eventually discard them?

Wise idea to have a separate breeding/nesting room! Notes taken, thanks for the video and info.

How prevent the fighting between males. I have 2 and 3 females but once they start singing the other will come and fight

@birdnerd 4 ай бұрын

They are establishing dominance. If you see that the female has selected a male them separate that pair on their own so that they can start breeding with out other males bothering them.

Can you touch eggs to put them with serogates

@alex8426 4 жыл бұрын

what kind of candler do you have and where did you buy it?

@birdnerd 4 жыл бұрын

I use a simple small flashlight to candle the eggs.

can gualdian finches be kept with zebra finches in an aviary

@birdnerd 2 ай бұрын

Yes, I have kept mine together. Zebras tend to be more pushy and aggressive when breeding and could discourage your gouldians from successfully breeding.

Hey can you do a vid on single pair breeding them?

@birdnerd 4 жыл бұрын

I do have some old videos of single pair breeding on the gouldians. If i put them into breeding cages this year then I will do some videos on them.

What type of lighting do you recommend and how many hours/day

@brittneypearson9022 4 жыл бұрын

How much do they cost to buy one?

@birdnerd 4 жыл бұрын

It really depends on where your at and the availability of the birds in your location. Around here they sell for $80-100.

@BonnieGBell-ul5eh 3 жыл бұрын

I ran across a candler (flash light) on www.glamousgouldians.com but it probably is more expensive than a small flashlight.
