Aviary question
Legacy_user
Posts: 0 Newbie
Years ago we had an aviary with half a dozen of each budgies/canaries and finches plus a Chinese painted quail. Breeding time was a nightmare for them but somehow we managed to rear quite a lot.
We have moved a couple of times since then but now I am thinking of having a small aviary to house 1 budgerigar, 1 canary and 4 zebra finches. Does anyone think this is a wrong permutation.?

Ideally you would want pairs minimum and i would leave out the budgies who are notoriously nasty little !!!!!!s towards other birds especially young helpless chicks which they will kill.
How about a pair of roller canaries for good song, a pair or one !!!!/two hen ratio of zebra finches and a pair of diamond doves?
The above are a good mix but adding your usual parakeets to the equation (cockateils/ budgies etc) is asking for trouble.
Good luck, im very jealous
