gouldians

Post by Trisha » Thu Dec 02, 2010 6:03 am

I am thinking of getting 2 gouldians, would 2 females or 2 males be happy together? Do they cuddle together like my zebra finches do? I do not want to have babies.

Thanks!

They don't really cuddle together or preen each other but 2 females or 2 males get along fine. A lot of people buy all males from me if they aren't interested in breeding. Their colors are more intense then the females plus you get the added bonus of their singing.

good luck
