Finches like to have company, so I suggest having a male and a female together in the same cage. They are very cute together, they always snuggle with each other :) Put a nest in their cage and they will sleep there together at night. However, they will usually keep breeding continually. If you don't want to have cute fluffy baby finches, you can take our the eggs every time you see them and throw them away. But if you do want cute fluffy baby finches, they are very fun to watch grow up and there is nothing you need to do for them, just take them out when the parents start picking on them. You can put them in another cage, free them outside, or you can sell them at a near bye pet store.

I have zebra finches, so this may varie depending on your breed of finch.

Do you have to get two zebra finches?

Finches are very social creatures prefer to have a companion.In a lot of bird cases you can buy one bird and they won't wilt away gradually. With finches, it's practically necessary to have two finches. Having just one finch is like having just one flower growing in the yard. It's better for the flower to have a companion..in your case. But you understand what I'm saying, right?Anyways, you wouldn't be able to get the full experience of finches if you got just one!

Why are my finches are pecking at each other is this fighting. I have a Society Finch and Zebra Finch.?

I did a little bit of research and I'm just getting that zebra finches do well with other zebra finches; not any other kind. Hope this helps, although I do have two zebra finches that continuously peck at one another. So it may be a sign of playing? Keep a close eye on them and make sure they don't hurt each other.


Can a canary and a finch be in the same cage?

Yes! Certainly you can. First I was afraid to put a pair of finches in a cage of 6 lovebirds who had their 5 babies in nest box.But when I put finches inside the cage, the two species never cared about each other.I had heard that lovebirds are very aggressive during their breeding time but they never came close to finches. Make sure that cage is big enough, mine is 3 by 3.Happy mingling!. Two species in one cage look very attractive.


Do finches and hummingbirds get along?

We have 3 different types of finches and they all share the same cage. We have a Spice Finch, A Golden Finch, and two Zebra Finches. They had a slight adjustment period where they would chase each other around in the cage but it didn't take long for them to become buddies. They will groom each other and sit close to each other on their perches. The Golden has a very pretty song which he shares every morning right before dawn. One of the Zebras is very noisy. It is very hard to call it a 'song'. Ha ha! He is a character. We named him Toot because that is how he sounds. You can also get more info from the internet and from breeders and/or pet stores about finches.

Can you house 2 male zebra finches together?

you can but they may fight and seriously injure each other or one may be picked on by the other some more serious results of bullying are broken jaws and the bullied finch may pluck its feathers out ect. i would advise housing two females instead although they may not look as good they will get along better than two malezs I have two male zebra finches that have been together for a long time and they are best friends. They occasionally fight, but they make up quickly and they have neever hurt each other.
