here is the story.When I first bought them they are so sweet and cuddly with each other,specially after they built their nest..but then the female died.And so we decided to buy 3 other finches..so there could be 2 pairs of them,we even bought new big cage for them, so I didnt think there would be a problem for territorial thingie…But when I put them all in the same cage my “widower” decided to chase everybody especially the male one. as of now I placed a divider in the cage so he’s all alone yet again on the other side… what am I supposed to do so he would get along with others? T___T I feel like he only wants the first one who passed away to be his mate… T___T

thanks!!! I have another question… although its kind of stupid for you guys who have experience already.. XDDD

`. If you decided to place the finches indoor… should you take them out in the morning for direct sunlight?? wont it bother them and have problem being familiar with their surrounding?

2. And is it okay at night to leave them without light? Or should I provide them one??

Thanks in advance~!!! Ü

hi eniehs,

if you can, provide them a cage which will 1) have a little sunlight during the day(usually the morning) so that they’ll get the energy and vitamins they need from the sun like most animals do (that includes us humans) and 2) is away from any artificial light in the evening so that they can get their much deserved rest after bouncing inside their cage all day long. I myself find this difficult to accomplish so the alternative is do 1) and just procure a tarpaulin with which you can cover their cage at night. The tarpaulin can act as shield to cold wind drafts as well.

Thanks for the answers… I’ll try the tarpaulin thingie… I’ll just get them inside if there is a storm or something like Milenyo.. @__@;; I couldn’t find some vitamin D in the pet shop nearby and I dont know how to commute to Cartimar to find one hahahahah. XDDD

anyweiz.. I have another question.. haha. Really sorry for so many question.. I wanted to experience seeing eggs inside the nest so I’m trying my best. T___T you see, I have a talent in making a pet pass away. wawawawawa T___T

Question:
1. About the mate thingie.. as I said before, my “widower” chose the white one… but for some reason I think the white one dont like him… my widower sleeps outside their nest. He sleeps on a perch… compared to my other pair who sleeps together inside their nest… T__T I feel pity for him, the white one is not as affectionate as the 1st mate he had.. O__o;; So is it a bad thing or I should let it be? Should I do something or just let them whatever they want?? I want them to have babies T____T XDDD

2. Should I place a divider between the two pairs?? Seonadancing said that when a male wants to mate he doesn’t like distraction from the other male…So I’m guessing I should just place a divider between them… should I?? numerous time my widower would chase the other pair,(he doesn’t chase the white one that’s how I saw he chose her to be his mate. XD) but only for a moment unlike before…

—–
So yeah. that’s it for now. Sorry for tons of nutshell questions… T___T I just hate to see another dead finch in my cage. T___T

Im baacckk…. O_o;; XDDD

1. is it really possible that the finch I had got its first egg within 18 days?? O__o maybe its already pregnant when I got it neh?? it layed 2 eggs… @__@

2. I found out in the morning the other egg fell from the nest.its already broken T___T I have read in some sites that some finch really push their egg off the nest…is there some ways to avoid it?? thanks in advance!!!

hi eniehs,

i think breeding your zebra will be a great challenge to you. it seems that you are having a hard time breeding it. Here’s some tip, maybe you want to try this one. Try to feed them with eggs and vegetables (of course you have to change it everyday). Give them also calciums aside from vitamins. How many pairs of zebras you have right now? If you have 2 pairs try to exchange their partners. But be sure to it that they have atleast the same age. Friendly advise, as much as possible please buy your birds sa mga breeders, and they will also help you breeding your birds.

Zebras throw their eggs because of some of these reasons.
1. You keep on bothering them, or something is bothering them like a rat or roach.
2. First clutch.
3. 3rd straight clutch.
4. Lack of nesting material.

I used to count the number of eggs that were thrown away by my zebras but i stopped counting when the number went beyond 100.

seona,
musta na yug cfw?
just text me kung pwede na bro.

@eniehs, you got a great advice from seona and wildbirds. speaking from experience, your zebras haven’t settled yet(probably due to several reasons), and this is causing them to throw away, and even eat, their own eggs. find out what’s bothering them and soon they’ll start raising a family.

@sir benji, malupit ang reputation nyo ah. big time breeders na ang pumupuri sa inyo. hehe.

@ms. ladybird, you haven’t replied on my e-mail yet. iintayin ko po.

great week everyone!

I feed them mineral grits ska yung cuttlebone for calcium din ata un? haha. I’m trying to follow kurt_ang’s diet for his finch dun sa isang topic dito, kaso so far d ko pa nabibili yung vitamins so ung birdamin ekek pa lang yung binibigay ko.. >_____________

napuputol po yung post ko, sorry for 3ple posting…

…….
I clean them every 2days-3days… bad ba un…?

@ladybird
Thanks for the number, I’ll contact him, kaso makulet ako bka mainis? XD

@sir benji
ok lang po? bka makulitan kau saken.

@Gsas
The other female decided to change mate as I saw it last week, it wants the other male so she keeps chasing the other female… that’s one of the reasons I could think of that bothered them…

@all
thanks for infos, so far all of your answers was really a big help for a newbie like me… thanks a bunch talaga

@eniehs
ibig siguro sabihin nun,whote chicken egg(grated) including the shell(ground).yung iba ima micro wave pa yung shell para sure na walang salmonella.

i-separate mo rin yung nangbu bully na female at yung type nyang cock sa iyong flock.

@seona
bro ano nangyari sa ppc,nagexpire daw?
wala tuloy ako balita sa eb,malapit na yun right?

me mga tips din na hayaang maligo yung finch 2 days before hatch date para ma moisten ang eggs at di mahirapan ang chicks lumabas.di ko pa na try pero mukang totoo kasi sa experience ko me mga cases na nadededong chick kasi di nakalabas ng shell.

@ladybird
cavite ka po?cavite po din kase meh.. hehe
sure po, it will be a great help kase talagang wala ako alam sa ganito.. XD

they came out of their nest yesterday morning. XD

questions again: XDDD

1. Do I have to separate their cage from their parents? and if I have to, when can I do that?
2. Do they need some other kind of diet or pretty much the same like the diet of their parents: the diet Ive been using is the one posted by kurt_ang in finch health and diet section.

thanks in advance~!

@Eniehs,

Ganda ng zebra mo. May deviantart account kaba? Para ma visit ko naman. Thanks

thank you jave.. unfortunately mejo nadali xa ng house rat mice? naputol un isa nyang paa. hangang ngaun un prin ang problem ko mga daga. mejo nauubos n kc un mga finch ko. ano po b mgandang pangpatay sakanila?? but not harmful to the birds.

in my case medyo nalessen ko ang prob sa mice. ang gamit kong cages sa finches ay plywood yung sides pti yung tray sa ilalim, yung frontage wires at yung flooring chicken wires. i make it a point na safe ang mga finches ko kc bukod sa mga mice, my isa pa akong kalaban SNAKE…

HELP!

I’m a new finch owner, gifted with a pair of molting gouldians. The male’s older and just finished his molt, while the female looks like it’s going to still be molting until a month or so.

The female is pooping light-yellowish stuff, not the same kind the male poops out. His is more “normal” with bits and pieces. Hers is very liquid. This morning I was alarmed when I replaced their food and water and just in time saw her poop–it was completely liquid!

What’s wrong and what should I be doing?

I’m a little out of practice with sick birds as luckily I haven’t had too many problems yet. My only experience with mites are air-sack mites. They make the bird wheeze and sniffle but your problem sounds like lice. I’d go to a good veterinary practice (I use the clinic at UP Los Banos) to get advice. A malathion powder would be OK but it has to be formulated for birds as too much will kill it. As for the diarrhoea there are many causes and usually by the time something is cultured the bird has died so getting treatment on a best guess from the vet will be your best bet. Make sure that she stays warm and has access to food and water. A broad spectrum antibiotic will work for some protozoal and bacterial infections but you do need to go to the vet. Sometimes even worms will cause diarrhoea and these are easy to see if you have access to a microscope. Good luck

Greg

Thanks Greg and Ladybird for all your advice. I will try to consult a vet as soon as possible regarding our gouldians.

Our pair eats and sleeps well naman. The only problems are the female’s watery stool and their scratching. (I was even tempted to call one of them “Itchy” instead. Hehehe.) They don’t look lethargic at all, so I hope they’ll do fine and won’t surprise me with anything bad.

Will post their development. Thanks again!
