Housing

 Cage Size: Ensure the cage is spacious enough for the finch to fly around. A minimum size of 18 x 18 x 18 inches is recommended for one finch

 Finch

 Bar Spacing: The bars should be spaced no more than 1/2 inch apart to prevent escape or injury

Environment

  Location: Place the cage in a well-lit area away from direct sunlight, drafts, and sudden temperature changes.

 Temperature

 Temperature: Keep the environment at a stable temperature, ideally between 65°F and 80°F (18°C to 27°C).

 Diet

 Seed Mix: Provide a high-quality finch seed mix as the staple of their diet. Look for mixes that include a variety of seeds like millet, canary seed, and niger seed.

Diet

Fresh Foods: Supplement their diet with fresh vegetables (such as spinach, kale, and carrots) and fruits (such as apple slices and berries) in small amounts.

Health and Wellness

Observation: Regularly observe your finch for signs of illness, such as changes in behavior, feather condition, or appetite.

Social Needs

Companionship: Finches are social birds and do best in pairs or small groups. Avoid housing a single finch alone as they can become lonely and stressed.

Breeding (If Desired)

Breeding Pairs: If you plan to breed your finches, ensure you have a healthy pair and provide a nesting box with nesting material.

 Enrichment

Toys: Provide safe, bird-appropriate toys to stimulate their minds and prevent boredom. Finches enjoy swings, ladders, and bells.
