zebra and waxbill

[maximuswell]

I have a large flight cage with a pair of zebras and a pair of societies, today I saw a some common waxbills and I desperately want them for my own. People say zebras are pushy, but mine mostly keep to themselve's, I'd love to be able to keep them all together. Should I be concerned about these little guys in with larger more aggressive birds?

It may well depend on the size of your cage, but you will only know for sure if you try. If the zebras turn out to be aggressive, you should certainly separate the waxbills.

Totally agree with w.l.

Some Zebras can be laid back ( although I haven't personally met any ), but as a rule, they are territorial and aggressive.

Tiny Waxbills, wouldn't stand much of a chance against a pair of angry Zebbies who feel that their territory is being invaded.

I have had some docile zebras, English for sure, but I also have three normal grays now that don't cause any trouble outside their own little scuffles.
