Aww how adorable, they are just so cute and small. I love baby birds when they have just feathered out. They look all clumsy and bounce everywhere just so cute. =D>

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

She seems to fit right in! Only if she had a crest. =D> That is an amazing color, what mutation is that? I'd love to get a zebra of that color.
