Well I Think You Could Keep A Hummingbird As A Pet Although You Have To Keep Them In Open Areas And If It's A Baby You Have To Feed Him Every 30 To 45 Minutes Because They Waste A Lot Of Energy. They Would Make Good Pets And Their Adorable. Hope That Helped Answer Your Question!

Please don't keep wild finches as pets unless you have a license for keeping them. Just go to your local pet store and buy a captive-bred finch there. Wild finches are food for other animals and people love to watch them at their bird feeders. Don't mess with nature.

Of course! Many people keep birds as pets, such as budgies, canaries, finches, and exotic birds like parrots. However, if you choose to keep a wild bird as a pet, you need to be well informed about its care and health, especially since some wild birds (including pigeons) can be carriers of diseases that can affect humans and even be a public health hazard. Check with your local ordinances about keeping birds such as chickens in the backyard, since there may be laws such as how close you can keep such birds to neighboring residences.

Of course you are! It's real easy! Just catch one. Put it in a small tank. Put some grass in it. Give it a some water in a tiny container. I fed it fish food, honey roasted sunflower seeds, and rainbow sprinkles and it's as healthy as ever! That make great pets! Everytime you look at it you'll think "I can't believe I actually caught it and now it's my pet!". But don't take it of the tank. If you take it out of the tank it might fall and run all around your house. Little critters are fast. It's hard enough catching them outside but if they're running loose in your house than that's a problem. Keep it in the tank. And if you try and touch it and it runs away. It's natural. You and it's pet life are a whole new thing to it.
