Hi,
My name is Makayla Friedel and I am a student at Blackburn College in Carlinville, IL. I am involved in the work study program and I am currently working in our science department in the vivarium where we own snakes, lizards, turtles, frogs, salamanders and fish. My upcoming project for next semester is to start an aviary with finches and possible canaries. My supervisor, nor any of my co-workers have any experience with these types of birds. It is my job to find out as much information as possible so I can start on my project right away. If possible, I would like to create/buy and nice sized aviary approximately 5'x2'x4' or so. I need advice on how many birds I can put in there, and what species I can and can't put together. I also would need a good lighting system if anyone has any recommendations.

Thanks for your help in advance!
