What is most passive African to be housed with S. Firefinch?

Post by Ellen » Fri May 09, 2014 12:41 pm

The fires are so friendly would like to add two really passive african, our BCCB are way too overpowering, and I don't want to risk Orange Breast either, is there another choice ?

Thanks !

I have kept Goldbreasts and Senegal Fires together without problem.

I find my little orange cheeks very sweet and compatible with other birds.

I too would recommend Gold-breasts or Orance-cheeks. IMO both are quite passive and get along well with others.
