Would Three Male Society Finches Get Along In One Cage?

I bought two male Society Finches over a week ago at the pets store and left three there. They had all been together for several weeks at the store. Now the last time I was in there was just one male. He was constantly singing and all by himself. Do you think three males would get along as they had been together at the store? They are young, but I don't know their exact age. I noticed the beak color on the fawn and white turned from black to cream color. The biggest cage I could provide would be 30 X 18 X 18. Thank you for any replies.

Yes, societies love company and trios are normally all snuggles.

And beak colour if it’s black then it is young most likely a juvenile if it’s hanged pink then it must be about 3 months now

I finally bought that last Society today. The tail is frayed and short and has been since I saw them. That is probably why no one bought it. The bird was puffed out like males do singing away behind the glass. When I put it in a separate cage next to the other two all "he" does is chirp. Did "he" turn into a female on the way home? I intended to keep them all together. Just keeping this one separate for a little while. Why did "he" sing there, but not here? Thank you for any replies.

It will take some time to sing in a new environment. He will start again, though less if the others are dominant to him.

Thank you Sheather and Fraza. I did see him sing a little today. He will be happier when I move him into the bigger cage with the other two. Love the societies! They are so active and sing a lot.
