Siberian Bull Finch Hen Has Been Sitting Tight


Recommended Posts

Over the moon as after a bit of worry with the cock bird, a month or so back.

The hen has now started to sit tight on four eggs for the last week or so, this is my 1st ever pair of these and are such tame little birds, great addition to my aviary. Does any one else on the THL keep these who could pass on some sound advice about them.

All the best

yes they can make fantastic parents but like in many birds sometimes parent wont rear,cocks get aggresive to hen sitting on nest,parents mutilate young especially when ya put a ring on them thats why you need to cover any rings you put on,but usually good parent i had 10 pairs last year and bred 105 bullfinch mutations bred the most in britain last 2 years by ioa report
