Fake or real doesn't really matter. If you get the fake one, use the manzanita perch. They are actually real but used at perches. I use twigs from the yard and the manza perches. For finches make sure you find one that has a few very thin branches.

Also just make sure you wash anything you put in the cage really good. Unless you use some exotic tree branch your usually ok.

I got my fake Ivy at Walmart...very cheep!
Check out the gallery photos...you can get some good decorating ideas there from others cages.
Also there is a list in the Finch Info link. Here is a link to safe and toxic plants.

If you get that 30x18x18 cage, you can put a perch at each end, then hang a swing in the center--most finches love swings.
And don't worry about asking questions, we all have questions, that's how we learn about our birdies!
