Congratulations! 
My joy was of short
baby 4 and 3 have died. One is nowhere to be found, and one lay dead between the plants.
baby 1 and 2 are growing small feathers, so i at least have some hope they will make it!
The red siskins laid an egg at the bottom of the cage, but they refuse to nest today i created “the perfect siskin nest” just the way they seem to do it themselves, and laid the egg in. Hopefully i can convince the little lady to lay her eggs where they should

Its life.. breeding siskins is harder then canary’s ive been told.
Unfortunatly, i have only 1 baby left good thing is that its growing really good!
The red siskins are also nesting again! After i watched the female keep flying with materials, building a nest, rining it again, building a new one.. it was so tiresome! I decided to help her and i made a perfect siskin nest for her to live in!
She did some redecorating, and now shes steadily in her new home for most of the day! I expect new eggs and dare i say, babies too in not a lot of time!

So.. the red siskins laid an egg in the nest, and the bullfinches too!
I ever really expected the bullfinches to lay eggs in a nest, so thats some good news though a bit late.. they where my dad’s favorite! I’m sure he would have loved young bullfinches

I NEED HELP!
So, this last one Black Hooded Siskin baby is sitting in his nest, chirping veeeeeery much, and when i just looked, he had no food in his crop
i really want to save this one. Does anyone know anything about handfeeding siskins? Maybe i can feed him a few times a day, just as an extra? Im not sure if his mother is feeding him.. shes building a new nest and having lots of “fun” with her mate..
tssssk, one should call Child Protective Services.. but then, that would be me!
it could all be due to this beeing their first nest, most likely they re just unexperienced parents.. but still, i want this one youngster to be saved!
