Society Finch Color?

Post by Brant's_Finches » Tue Oct 26, 2010 11:55 pm

Hey everyone! I posted this picture of my societies way back when and never asked what color the male was? He is the one on top. This is also the pair that are great fosters but now working on them having there own clutch. They are no longer in this cage but in a separate one with just them! They are my favorite finches, because they are just so calm and when I enter the bird room they will literally stick half there bodies out of there nest to see what I am up to! :mrgreen:

I just love societies!

I can't help you on their colour, I just wanted to write that I love them.

At first glance I would have said Fawn - but the color up by the face looks much darker, more like a Chestnut..
Can you get a large photo of just the male? :)
