I have two happy male society finches in a cage approx 3 feet long and 14" wide, 24.5 inches high. Can I add a 3rd male. There's one that has been in the pet store for months. Awful. Tiny cage.
Ideally, the more space the better, and three birds should have a flight cage that is big enough for them to fly back and forth horizontally in (finches tend to like horizontal rather than vertical cages). You also want to make sure each bird has their own access to food, water, and bedding areas, with dividers such as perches or toys to break up the space and prevent fighting over territory. If you do introduce a new bird, make sure to keep him separated for a week first to prevent the spread of any illness, and to make sure he is healthy enough to be added to the flock before doing so.

I have a small sparrow like bird of white color. His name is pippo. Ibought him from a pet shop. He has been with me for 6 months. I think he is sick. He is doing very less physical activities , sleeping more , eating less, falls when flying , fillin
Thanks for reaching out about your finch and including photos. A veterinary visit is recommended but understand if one is not available, but only limited things can be done at home. Weakness can have multiple causes, with infections being only one possibility. Provide heat support in the 80-85 F range can give some support. Finches eat primarily seed but also need a vitamin/mineral/protein support in the form of a wide variety of vegetables. Provide a soft bedding/towels on the bottom of the cage to protect if falls. Good luck.

Hi! I recently got a little baby parakeet. So far, she’s been doing very well; it’s been a little over a month. However, instead of eating all of her seed mixture, I think she just picks through & eats her favorites because there are a lot of remnant
You can add in a commercial pelleted mix. Brands include Roudybush, Harrison's, LaFeber or Pretty Bird. This should make up most of her diet. You can supplement with a small amount of a fortified seed mix. Round out her diet with fresh greens, vegetables and a small amount of fruit. She can also eat foods such as cooked grains and beans and plain pasta. Scrambled egg is also a healthy treat. Introduce new foods gradually and one at a time. Monitor for loose droppings afterwards.

So the bird food had a lot of mouse droplets in it even in the bag I didn't expect it at all and now as you see in the picture they are waiting for their food I have to go get some but that will take some time how long can they without food i can giv
If the food is full of mouse droppings it is best to purchase new food ASAP. While treats can be given, they are not a balanced diet, and a new food should be purchased and given as soon as possible to avoid any illness or GI upset. In the future, placing their food in an airtight storage container made from plastic can help prevent rodents from getting to it.

I have society finches. How can i know their feelings, whether they are happy or sad for example? Thanks
Thank you for using Boop by Petco! Finches are a rather social species, so they tend to do very well in large groups. Their social state has a large weight on their wellbeing, so you should keep an eye out for any finches that have feather loss due to feather picking or are being excluded from the group. To keep their environment enriched, you can provide a variety of perches, nesting boxes, grit, and occasional treats. I hope this helps and am happy to answer any other questions you have!
