Are you serious Karen, or are you pulling my leg? Don't pull too hard today, it might come off...

@Smurf
So you think Alfie, might be the girl, as well?

→So Amy, is THE Boy, and Alfie is The Girl? (maybe???)←:-D

As for 'trilling', I get a whistle out of both of them. Not sure if that's what's termed as a trill. It's a high pitched whistle, like a : Sweeeee!

lovezebs i can't find an audio recording of the thrill except for 1 video of a male 'singing' which sounds totaly alien to normal so not something to go by, i suspect it's what your referring to as a 'sweeee' , which would mean both are cocks, the hen just makes a normal chirp like most other finches.

They are a very placid species so housing 2 cocks together wouldn't be a problem

Thanks Padraic.
I guess time will tell. I really was hoping for a pair, but two boys will be fine. I know that Alfie has been lonesome, trying to make friends with the Societies, who are not interested, the pair of Stars (m/f) who are REALLY not intetested, my Canary (who gives him a look that sends him screaming into the night). So this way, at least these two will have each other to hang out with.
