Parmenides

I took this photos about an hour ago, these are all six of my chicks. They are 10 to 15 days old (upper left is 10 days old and bottom right is 15 days old): https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=923086334369929&set=a.377239188954649.97989.100000057143676&type=1&theater

Hi! Yes, Istria is a special region, very developed lately so if You come now you'll see the difference

Great, I understand that watching them do their stuff can be very interesting but also very calming. I heard few times that people are concerned if the parents are going to feed the babies. Is that common that they don't feed their youngs? (When my first chick hatched I was also a little concerned because I didn't see parents feeding him, but when I saw that he lived few hours I knew everything will be ok.)

Thanks, Emmy. I took this one out of the nest, it's quite worm in my room so he is not cold. They are still in the nest, I expect them to exit this week. They are very cute, and they sound funny, even funnier than their parents I always laugh when the parents are feeding them. It is so interesting and beautiful for me watching them grow.

Hello again! I just want to say that I got six chicks out of eight eggs, they are growing very fast and I'm surprised how everything is going easy with zebra finch breeding, at least in my case! And I wanted to show you the oldest of this six chicks, he/she is 13 days old. Thanx and I hope you enjoy your zebra finches like I do! I wrote in video this is a fledgling, but I'm not sure if it is , maybe it's still a hatchling?

Hah... this morning I thaught I would, but I spread the news and one person already asked me fo two zebras! ... So I think I won't be keeping them all, but who knows! I I just hope I'll manage to recognise and keep this one that hatched first, after all he is the first one

Thank you, it's great feeling to watch how chicks are hatching... And I think they really are good parents. Emmy, if I understood you correctly, I guess you're right

Hello everybody! I just must share this with you... Today I found first chick of my zebra finches... They have eight eggs, so now I'm expecting more hatchlings. This is the first time I have zebra finches, and I have them for about a month now and they already have chicks! You can see the small one here: Thanx!

Thank you all for your comments, I'm glad that you like video showing my finches. I also think the birds are quite happy, they accomodated quite fast and well. Thanks Zottan and Silver Cheeks for your welcoming posts. I also find this forum very helpful and friendly, hope we'll meet on some interesting topic

Hi! Things are going quite well with my Finches, they have already started building their nest, and i'ts been two weeks since I have them. I've made a short video showing them building their nest: Any comment is welcome, especially if I'm doing something wrong. Thanks!

Thank you all for your welcome and for your answers. They looked like normals to me.

Hi, I'm Luka and recently I've bougt two pairs of Zebra finches. Now, I don't know what type of colour are they, I think they're just 'vulgaris' I love birds in general (photographing and observing them, spending a lot of time i nature just tracking their nests, mapping their habitats etc.) and I often held a pair of budgies or some other smaller parrots. Now I decided to try with Zebra finches. I already had some problems by now, but I'll talk about that in another place. For now I just want to say hello to all members. I hope this will be the place where I'll spend some quality time discussing Finch joys and problems. These are my finches; can anybody please tell me what 'kind of colour' are they? Thank You!
