I got a pair of star finches...
I just wanted to show them off
Here's the male:
and here's the female:
The yellow-faced mutation is not as flashy as the red one IMO, but I still think they look pretty nice. What do you think?

I actually like the yellow faced ones better. The red ones kind of looked like Turkey to me (because of the red face). I didn't really like them that much.
I hope you enjoy them.

Beautiful birds! They look healthy and alert. Good luck with them.

Yes, they’re quite active and the male sings a lot, as well. I thought the societies songs would overwhelm his since they’re many, sing frequently and loudly, but we still hear him clearly, which is nice since I like the way he sings.

Magali they are really nice I miss having stars ;(
They sound like a happy pair too if he’s singing a lot, have you got them in the same cage as the society’s

Fraza, How is that Java crossed with the Society chick doing? Do you have any recent pictures?

No, they’re currently in quarantine. Eventually, they’ll be with my societies.Fraza wrote: Magali they are really nice I miss having stars ;(

Re: I got a pair of star finches...
wildbird he’s doing well there is a few minor differences he’s got bigger and he’s started to get black patches over his head and the beak is started to change to a light brown instead of black he’s also got new pin feathers coming all over so be interesting to see if these new pin feathers are new colour.
I’ll add a new picture on the topic later if i find time
@Magali that should be exiting stars are friendly anyway
