FINCHforum

Has anyone had luck with gouldians, green singing finches or cordon bleu in a flock situation? I have a large flight. Good light,plants,lots of nests,fresh food/seeds/pellets, bath water, vitamins in drinking water. Lots ofeggs but none hatch

I have gouldians and red cheeked cordons in a mixed aviary and have not had any problems at all. no green singers though.

Green singers can be a problem...they are very territorial.With Gouldians and infertile eggs...there are many reasons.As they get older fertility usually improves.
But I find in a colony you will always get lots of eggs and few youngsters...gouldians always do better when the pairs have their own space...ie...cages.Depends on how many you expect to raise.
If you are happy with several pairs in an aviary..And I prefer it...just don't expect lots of young 'uns...
You've just got to be patient and give 'em time.

Thank you all.
