I currently have a budgie, and am interested in adding a same sex pair of zebra finches to our fam. My only quibble is that I live in an apartment, and would like to avoid a bird that's too loud (for the neighbor's sake). For all the zebra finch owners out there, particularly you who have either just boys or just girls (I imagine they're louder or quieter if they have a mate?) would these birds be apartment friendly sound-wise in your opinion? Honestly, I've read up on it where I could and volume is so subjective, it's hard to figure out what basic words like "quiet" mean without reference. A budgie isn't usually too loud, but they frequently vocalize, which is absolutely shared-wall friendly and fine for this living situation.
Also: Is egg laying a problem with two girls alone?
Thanks for any help. All is appreciated.
