Ive had a pair of Gouldian finches for 5 years. The female died suddenly last weekend. Now my male is alone.
Is it best to leave him alone due to his age?
OR I can get him new Gouldian friends, if so, how many can I get and what gender?
Thank you!

It would be best to get him a friend for companionship. Males go very well together, how many will depend on the cage size.
Another male would be my recommendation.
best of luck

My cage is a larger cage but unfortunately higher than on longer side.

Without knowing the measurements I would guess just one more would be fine.
