6FT Flight Cage Before & After

[ranchnanny]

I think I have way to much time on my hands,,,,,, what do all think of the finch hot tub????

[Leel]

That looks great!
I'd never have to space for something like that, like the little feeding station too

[6finchfriends]

That has got to be the cutest thing ever!

Glad you all like the hot tub... I have had two zebras use it but the others are still looking it over. I placed the old heart shaped bath next to it and there were three finches in it and I was hoping that the others would jump in the hot tub. Only 2 so far. Today I have had several stand on it and take a drink but no fids getting their feet wet. Other then that they are having a ball fiying back and forth zooming around, swinging on the various swings. I have one male zeb I have named "Bob the Builder" what a dynamo. He will go down and get quite a bit of nesting material in his mouth and fly up to the corner above two nest and continue to build and what a nest it is. He has taken up with Zoe and very protective of her. Zila appears to still being somewhat of a loner doesn't seem to be interested in any males. They are trying but at night she is always alone.... I think I got lucky with the spice finches in that I have seen two of them singing They have paired up but aren't nesting yet. This flight cage is a hub of activity as soon as the lights come on in the morning. Its hard to sleep in LOL!!!
I love the sound "The House is Alive with the Sound of Finches"

Zila is an all white Zebra and Zoe is a Fawn Zebra.

Okay Sherry... I've been singing 'sound of music' in my head all day

Don't you love having them where you can watch and hear them? so cool. Way better than TV!

I am really enjoying this flight cage I just spin my recliner around and I can sit and watch for hours. Don't get much done LOL!! I love having my coffee and watching the fids. Things are much quieter since I moved Jack and Jill out of the flight. They are in another cage BONDING!!

Maybe after a while I will bring them back in. The nest building is going on at a fast pace I can't provide nesting material fast enough they use every bit I put in there. The only ones not building are the Spice Finches which I now realize I have two pairs They try and mate but no nest building. There are several empty nests so that's not the problem. Any suggestions?

ZILA HAS A BOYFRIEND This has happened after I removed Jack & Jill from the flight. The male courting Zila couldn't get close to her because of Jack who already had a mate. But now Zak has bonded with Zila and they are building a nest. They slept in their nest last night. I am so happy she has a mate.

Yay for Zila! love is in the air!
