http://www.finchforum.com/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=33211

I'm very pleased with them, 20 chicks in total between 4 nests, excluding the 5 older chicks from 2 earlier clutches

I'm in Co. Laois, thinking the 4 pr i currently have are plenty so will be selling nearly all the young, some of the adult parent hens will be replaced with a fawn chick for next season as none of my adults are visible fawn but getting the odd fawn chick (have to all be hens).

Over half these current chicks are already reserved by people so let me know by pm either here or on facebook if your interested in some, it will be about 2-3 months before any are finished moult and ready to go.

I've 1 spare adult hen of unknown age at moment if you have an odd cock and want to make up an extra pair.
