Charming little things that are just brilliant for those looking for low maintenance. Brightly coloured and full of energy. Finches are not known for their voice in terms of talking nor for being handled but make lovely little singers. They are a brilliant alternative for someone looking for company without the demands of a bigger bird. Absolute ideal to complete a busy looking avairy, lots of colours available and although finches are small there is a variety of sizes. Finches can also be kept in flight cages in the house to provide company.
