FINCHforum

I recently joined the finch forum and really want to share my new aviary with all of you. I finished building it 2 months ago and have 2 pairs of birds in it now that are doing great. I plan to add my other pair of Lady Gouldians next week, as they are finishing up their molt.

I raised birds when I was younger. My family had a very large mixed aviary. Now that I am married and have a young daughter I thought it would be fun to have a small aviary again. This one is 7X4 feet and 6 feet tall.

It was a lot of work to build but worth the effort. I love watching my birds in a larger space

A few more pictures

I love the set up. Also like that you have the keets with the gouldians. I too have these 2 species and the keets are so sweet. Most say don't mix hookbills with finches but there are a few that are so peaceful and the scarlets are the most beaytiful
Question, What is the brown closed in part? Storage? Shelter?

Great looking set-up. I wish that I could have an outdoor aviary. But with snow and cold and raccoons and cats and dogs and bears ......ok, I know you got my drift.

Great aviary I love the way you made the feeding station great idea

Beautiful!

I have budgies with my finches in the aviary and all get along very well. (I do have my parrotlets in a separate flight cage though.) I agree, some hookbills work fine with finches as long as they have plenty of room.

It is a shelter for the birds. I will try to get a photo of it later. In it are 3 Gouldian nest boxes, the keets next box, and rows or perches. I plan to add a heating source during the winter.

Yes, the keets are so sweat I love them. The breeder I got them from also breeds Gouldians in the same aviary and there is a vet in my area who breeds both species together as well.

Wow....great photos....I love your Aviary....so nice and big! Someday I might get something like that......someday!
