Hi All,
I had two pair of zebra finches but one male was killed by my cat, who figured out how to get the cage door open!!! The birds are now closed off in another room while work on the new cat-proof aviary is completed. The remaining male and his hen seem to be quite happy and have built themselves a nice little nest, but the other female doesn't cuddle with them in their nest and looks lonely to me. Am I imagining things? Should I get her another male? I have a parakeet in the same cage as well, and they all seem to get along just fine. Once the aviary is finished, I hope to get a canary as well. If I do get another male finch and a canary, should I introduce all the birds into the new space at once so none of them have established territory?
