They usually puff up for somewhat long periods of time... you also may see them itching their feathers quite frequently. I had the same problem! You could go to the vet, or put them in some subdued sunlight - finches may get sick due to lack of sunshine. Hope this helps!

Can you teach your zebra finch to talk?

Zebra Finches can't talk, but one of my Pied Zebra Finches make a call that imitates the sound of an alarm. My Zebra Finches do answer me, though. When I walk in the door and say "Hi" to them, they chirp back. Zebra Finches can make beautiful calls, so without tricks, these cute little birds put on a show...with their singing!
