How big is the aviary? The problem in a larger space is that there are so many things that get in the way, like perches, plants, etc. A net is the only option. Some people build a catch in their aviary, a sort of box where they put all the feed, so when the birds go in there to eat, they can be trapped and caught.

It is an OK size but he has about 75 finches and I am going to take around "ten" and a couple of diamond doves :D :D So how would I trap a little finch in a group of 75 ish :oops:
