How Many Finches Will Fit??

Hi all,
My cage is 3ft wide, 2ft high and 1.5ft deep. At the moment, there are 4 wooden perches, fake plants, a couple of swings, cuttlefish, a water bowl and a food bowl.
What is the maximum amount of finches I can keep in a cage of this size? What numbers have people found to keep the Finches happy?
At the moment there is only one Finch in there

He was given to me by a cousin...He looks kind of lonely. So I was considering getting some more, any ideas?
Thanks

What kind do you already have, could make a difference.

Can you post a pic of your finch or tell us what kind you have? As Debbie said, it will make a lot of difference. (Some birds don't mind being a little crowded - societies for example - but others require much more space)

I agree, we need to know the species. I think this cage could house 1-2 pair max. but if we know the species it helps

Oh right, there you go.
Also, if somebody could give some advice on ratios between males and females, that would be great.
thanks
