FINCHforum

My friend has just gave me his pair of grey singers. He used to keep them in a big flight cage with a bunch of strawberries but now he must give them away since he wanna start breeding the strawberries again; so I dropped by his place yesterday and took them home.
I don't have much experiences about these guys, I don't even know if they're a real pair or not since they never ever laid any eggs when they're in my friend's place. I saw some pin feathers in their face and breast, is that signs of molting? Will they go through a heavy molt like gouldians, or they will molt like canaries?
anyway, here's the photos. The male is actually a hybrid(male green singer x female grey singer). The female: Now I'm feeding them what I feed my other finches, plus meal worm and ant eggs.
They're 2 years old now, hope I can do something right and will hear their nice song soon.

Lovely

Beautiful, congratulations!

I like the look of your male Quan. Your female also looks like a hybrid to me aswell.

Yeah I can see the light yellow in her wings too.

They are very pretty, congrats
From my experience singers do not molt like gouldians, so hopefully it won`t be long before you can tell us that you have eggs

Very nice!

Very nice birds!!, If I'm not wrong because they are hybrids unfortunately they will never breed because they are not fertile

I understand these hybrids to be infertile.

congrats! Even if they are infertile they are still lovely birds! Do they have a pretty song?

Beautiful birds!

They have a quite pleasing song, very nice.
and I've read somewhere that hybrid between grey x green singer are still fertile.

Congratulations on your new Grey Singers - super!!
