New to the Hobby & I Have Questions ~

Post by JerseyGuy » Sun Jun 19, 2016 12:34 pm

I am new (or will be) to the Hobby of owning Finches. My desire is to own 2 Gouldian Finches. I will be able to House them in a Cage 30"x18"x18" (as that is the largest size cage my home can handle).
I have been assured this size cage is acceptable for 2 Gouldian Finches. How does everyone else feel about this ? I do not plan on owning any more than 2 Finches.
Hope to receive some input from other Members of the Forum and I look forward to hearing from you.
Thank You.
Patrick

1 Male Gouldian finch, 1 Senegal Parrot, 1 English Bulldog and 1 Chiweenie.

Since this is the size that will fit into your living arrangement, this would certainly work for 2 Gouldians. If it is at all possible, you might want to look into the same type cage but a little taller, the ones that are 30x18x36. The extra room will give your birds more flying space, while the cage wouldn't take up any more counter/table space.
