OH!!! I think you misinterpreted.

The thing is that i don't have a longing for babies but if they have them it is a plus. Like it would be a good thing if they had babies. Does that make better sense?

No, I do understand. Just saying that if you have nests in the cage and they start having a family, you might see them being aggressive with each other and it might not be a great day in Mayberry.

OH ok.

For right now I think i'll leave the nests. If they get aggro towards each other i'll be sure to remove the nests immediately.

Thanks so much Atarasi! You've been a HUGE help.

Okay, sounds good. A lot of people believe birds need a nest to sleep. Some finches do build nests for roosting purposes only, but it's not required for them to sleep.

Good to know. Thanks!
