zebra finches for sale
If you’re looking to add a splash of color and a unique character to your aviary, our zebra finches for sale is the perfect choice. These charming birds are not only larger and plumper than the regular-sized Zebra Finch, but they also bring a distinct personality and appearance that sets them apart.
Distinctive Appearance: The English Zebra Finch is known for its vibrant and eye-catching coloring, similar to the regular Zebra Finch but with a more pronounced hue. The males boast a striking combination of gray-blue and brown with bold black stripes and a band across the chest. Their bright orange cheek patches and a teardrop mark beneath the eye add to their distinctive look, while a vivid red beak completes the ensemble. In contrast, females are more understated, lacking the cheek patches, striping, and breast band, yet still maintaining the elegant appearance typical of the species. Standing at 4-5 inches in length, these finches make a noticeable and attractive addition to any aviary.
Personality and Song: English Zebra Finches are known for their curious and chatty nature. While they have a somewhat monotonous “honking” song, it tends to grow on you, adding a soothing background melody to your space. These finches are slightly territorial, but they are less so than their normal-sized counterparts, making them a more relaxed choice for mixed aviaries. Their moderate activity levels mean they won’t be as frenetic as some other species, creating a balanced and harmonious environment.
Breeding and Care: Breeding English Zebra Finches is a rewarding experience. They prefer a nest box sized 5×5 with a half-open front. When it comes to nesting materials, they enjoy bulky options like grasses and coco fiber, which they skillfully weave together. To create a cozy and inviting nest, provide them with soft white cotton or feathers for the finishing touches. One important tip for breeding is to remove any excess nesting material once egg-laying begins to prevent the male from building over the eggs. Incubation is a shared responsibility between both parents and typically lasts 13-16 days.
