Blame the propellerheads...: Finch Update 21-02-2014
http://gjhmac.blogspot.com/2014/02/finch-update-21-02-2014.html
Friday, February 21, 2014. I lifted the lid on the Gouldian nest in the aviary today to check how the recently hatched chicks are going. We have five healthy looking youngsters (and one unhatched egg). Is there a possibility the 6th may hatch shortly or is that it? 11:02 am, March 07, 2014. I think that will be it. Not sure if the sixth egg was fertilised. To be honest Im not sure what Ill do with five of them, let alone six! 9:57 pm, March 09, 2014. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). I run on this stuff.

Friday, February 14, 2014. When I fed and watered the finches in the main aviary this evening I noticed that both of the Gouldian Finches. Were inside their nesting box. Thinking I'd better check if everything is ok, I climbed inside the aviary. To my surprise I discovered that some (possibly all, it's a bit hard to see everything in there) of the eggs have hatched!

Blame the propellerheads...: Finch Update 02-10-2014
http://gjhmac.blogspot.com/2014/10/finch-update-02-10-2014.html
Thursday, October 02, 2014. A fair bit has happened in the last few months (I have been particularly slack in updating this blog):. The fawn Zebra Finches have bred, five young hatched and three have survived (goes to show that even a Zebra Finch with a busted wing can still father a healthy brood);. The Gouldian Finches bred again, raising a single offspring (this is the fourth brood for the season);. The Painted Finches have bred, 3 have hatched, have left the nest and are doing very well.

Aussie Bengos: Selfs
http://aussiebengos.blogspot.com/p/selfs_22.html
Lonchura striata domestica - The Self Bengalese Finch (Society Finch) in Australia. The common belief amongst Finchos is that the Bengalese Mannikin has no true natural ancestry and simply stems from fertile hybrids of the Lonchura family that were bred domestically hundreds of years ago. It is my view that keeping the Self Bengo and encouraging others to do so is helping to establish a strain of Finch that is traditionally rare in Australia and is the pure form of an often forgotten Finch in Aviculture.
