Rox Stars - all grown up

Post by monotwine » Mon Nov 03, 2014 9:08 am

Rox kindly gave me the hen last season and she is now a fully fledged woman - and waiting for her mate to grow up. LOL sounds like most ladies relationships :lol: (sorry to the men out there for any generalizing).Hoping they will settle down and breed this season.

Truly a beautiful Star finch, with a great-looking mate. They should produce gorgeous babies!

Thanks all. This is the first time I've had a pair of Star's so hope they do decide to breed in my aviary.

You know I look at some of the cage indoor birds on this forum and I think, Wow they all look so healthy! :D Not a feather out of place.
Outdoor living has its ups and downs. Today it is miserably cold and for a few days before was terribly windy. Then all I get is puff balls looking as miserable as the weather.
However on good sunny calm days, YES the outdoors is a super place for birds. They love sunning themselves and have plenty free flight to stretch their wings.
