Finch Information and Articles
Links are to your left. Below are also links and article descriptions. These articles have all been written by me and may NOT be posted on any other website or in any publication or newsletter without written permission from me.
Information about specific species of finches can be found in my Species Showcase section.

Aviary Plants: Live or Fake - The planted, garden-like, aviary is always the dream. Learn which types of plants are best for your feathered friends.

Building an Aviary - This article was posted in the AFA Watchbird Magazine after they saw it on my site. I enjoy sharing my aviary plans and design ideas with others so you may someday build one for your finches. I've also included building and design plans for the small water fountain in my aviary.

Cage or Aviary? - Which is right for you and your flock. A cage or an Aviary. It's important to know which to invest in. Cages and Aviaries can both make wonderful homes for your finch(s).

Canaries and/or Hookbills with Finches - It really does surprise me how many people think it's no problem to house Canaries and/or Hookbills with their Finches. It really isn't ok, and I'd like to explain why.

Compatibility Chart - I am asked quite often about mixing species in an aviary. Wouldn't it be nice if you could look at a simple chart to see if the species you'd like to put together can actually be housed together? Now you can!
Finch Food: When Seed is not enough - Feeding finches. Do you feed your finches properly. Maybe you'd like to give your finches a little something extra but don't know what is good. Here is the article for you.

Light - Natural or artificial? - How to properly light yours birds area. Indoor, Outdoor, Natural & Artificial.

The Non-breeding Aviary - Not everyone wants to breed finches. Many of you simply want to enjoy the birds without the hassle of looking for someone else to take in all the babies. Well this is how it's done: Setting up a non-breeding aviary.

Toys for Finches? - Yes finches can enjoy toys. They won't enjoy a toy in the say was as a parrot, but they do like to play and some more aggressive birds do better in a community if they have something to distract them now and then. So, here are some toys my finches enjoy. Maybe yours will to.
