I love silverbills. They are such sweet little birds. I have one that pals around with my society finches and helps them to
foster when I need them. Your babies are very healthy and beautiful looking!

Simply adorable. Love the way all the babies look. :)
God is my redeemer and it is through Him I have found eternal happiness. I am grateful, I am blessed, and I am truly loved. I wish all this and more for all members of our finch forum family. May you all be blessed and highly favored. <3

That is so great! They are mature looking for fledges. My Spice fledges look similar, with more feathering than my other finches when they fledge.

I think some species mature faster than others.
