The Estrildid Aviary
เข้าร่วมเมื่อ 5 พ.ค. 2011
Welcome to my channel dedicated to Australian estrildid finches. I want to make a serene, low-key viewing experience where the primary focus is the health and happiness of these beautiful birds. Watch as I try to create an environment that mirrors a natural habitat where birds thrive and feel happy. I emphasize on sustainable and ethical breeding practices. Join me to learn and appreciate the delicate art of keeping finches as natural as possible.
More information about the Estrildid Aviary channel!
A very brief introduction to the channel, more to follow.

Blackbird and his offspring in the garden
มุมมอง 4653 หลายเดือนก่อน
Not only do I love my finches, I also really love wild birds. This winter I have provided a lot of food for great tits, blue tits, long-tailed tits, sparrows, robins, blackbirds, etc. One bird in particular sticks in my mind, a male blackbird. He has become so used to the mealworms that I offer him twice a day that he just sits there waiting at the feeding place and tries to get my attention by...
Recap of the first 10 days with the long-tailed finches
มุมมอง 1.9K3 หลายเดือนก่อน
It's already ten days since the long-tailed finches arrived in the aviary. They are absolutely fantastic and I already had a lot of fun with them. The aviary is still a bit barren, but I have planted all the plants and it's now only a matter of time before it becomes a green oasis. The birds will have even more fun!
long-tailed finches already started building a nest
มุมมอง 3964 หลายเดือนก่อน
I actually wanted to let them wait a little longer so that they would be in optimal breeding condition, but today the finches already started building their nests. The birds are still young and it is the first time they are building a nest, so they are still a bit clumsy. The bird with the red ring is the male, the one with the green ring is the female. I will make more videos in the coming day...
Long-tailed Finches introduced in the aviary
มุมมอง 2.2K4 หลายเดือนก่อน
After many many years of keeping kakarikis, today I'm starting something completely different. I just introduced Long-tailed finches into the aviary. Although I used to keep them before, that was almost 20 years ago. They were my absolute favorite birds at the time, so I'm extremely excited to welcome them back. It is also a motivation to make videos of the birds again, because I haven't done t...

My entertaining Kakarikis in the aviary. They were once widespread in New-zealand but now confined to Stewart Island/Rakiura and a number of offshore islands. They are considered vulnerable by the IUCN and BirdLife International because the remaining populations are highly fragmented

Thank you for you comment! I appreciate it and I'm working on it to release more content. I see you have a lot of nice videos as well. I'll certainly watch them!

Leuk om te zien
After keeping and breeding many parakeet species over the years, the kakariki are my all time favourite. Their colours, personality and ease of keeping are amazing. I emigrated from the uk 17 years ago and so have not been able to keep them. I am returning this year and my dream is to have an aviary with kakariki, budgies and created partridge. ❤
bonsoir Moi quand je met manger il jeté avec sa patte

Beautiful birds
i dont need a pet one thay live around my houce in the wild
I see dried meal worms. But what is the white one? I put this on @pumpkinsfriends. Hope that's okay. I'm getting one in a couple of months. Very excited!! The breeder mentioned that they weren't a hands-on bird. From the replies ... okay. Still definitely worth it!!
My little karakariki died a few days ago and he was a beautiful yellow color. And I didn’t know how or what he died from would you know?
I have one of these kinds of birds, his name is Kirby. This bird is hyper active and wants to eat ANYTHING it seems. I have to really pay attention to him about this. Your bird my have ate something bad perhaps. I think this is a high possibility.
Who 2019? I love kakarikes❤️
Me too

My BUDGIES talk to this but my kakariki... Not making progress.
Hello, I had a question... I have a six square meter aviary. Two kakarikis live in it. Can I add another two ? Then it would be two couples...
Max Mustermann ive read that males can get pretyy competitive and attack each other for females in captivity, may not be worth the risk
@@clockw0rk843 Oh okay that's good to hear, friend had a male which died recently and I had a female which my grandfather now looks after, we were looking to breed them at some point and I found out that info when searching online I guess, glad to hear its not the case
Can you make a care video?
Hello This kakariki yellow male or female?
Is that a mouse running by at 1:19?
amar amethyst I think it’s a quail
I love my kakiriki so much when i bought him he was scared and defensive he wont let me tovh him or something similar but now after 2 weeks a put him out of cage now i touch him kiss him hug him sooo sweet bird it have voice like mini cat or mini bird so melow and cute
you probaly wont reply but i have a kakariki too and its been 4 months since i got her she only eats from my hand and jump over my hand but she wont go on my hand or cuddle so what do i do to taim her?
@@Cromerhwa patience is the key. Sometimes it takes up to a year for a bird 2 warm up to you.
@@VindictiveRaider Thank you :)
@@VindictiveRaider But is there any tips you could tell me which won't make my kakariki afraid of me?
@@Cromerhwa birds are like butterflies the more you keep trying to catch it the more it'll run away. Just go with the flow and eventually it'll warm up to you.
a yellow one was sitting in my garden the other day. i gave it seed then caught it. its lost its tail, probably from a cat. pretty strange to see in the North of England.
BIG MIK MEDIA what did you do with him ?
good day!tell you kakariko for couples divorce?or together?
hello i really love your videos :) looks like you have loads of experience by the look at the birds and aviary , great quality birds and looks very clean , would be amazing if you could view my channel , and give me either feed back or like my videos or subscribe that would be amazing < keep up the good work
Could I have some advice pls..I have 2 karkariki's and am finding it hard to find the right seed mix..I give them the small parrot mix and when I refresh the seed everyday they jump in the container and kick most of the seed out..its like they don't like most of it and r searching for there favourite seed..it drives me crazy because there is sooo much seed that goes to waste..or is that just normal behaviour ? I give them all the extra stuff like fruit etc Could some tell me what seed mix they use ! Thank you...:)
maria elhassan well first off parrots shouldn’t have seeds as their main diet. Pellets are a staple. You can have seeds as treats or to have when converting to pellets. Just see what they like best :)
I really want a Kakariki. Do you have experience with them as a household pet?
I also really badly want one, do you know you can get blue morphs?! they have white crowns instead of red ones :)
I got one today and I'm getting a conure tomorrow 😀😆
+Artist Dreamer ooh cool
+Artist Dreamer Do a video ?
+Queen Jellyfish sure I might I got my conure today and tbh I do prefer him
this will happen what I suggest is keep the two birds separated this happens because the kakaraki is a curius bird and will go and investigate and who was there first ?
beautiful
We Have Red Eyes!!! -Kakariki
عندي جوز ومات النثى طيورحلوه وجميله👍
are they noisy for let's say an apartment? (just two let's say).
Jayce Miles Not at all I got 2 they're so playful
I need help. My kakariki try's to attack my other birds. Especially my budgie as soon as he sees the budgie his pupils go in n out very fast. It's scary to see and as he's jumping to him he makes a weird angry noise. The kakariki has been like that since he was 8 weeks old when I got him. He'll be 1 on the 18/2/12
Sharon Keay males don't like each other
it´s so cuties !!!!!!
Indeed your are right:)
It's a king quail. The fundaments of the aviary are 1m deep, so no mouse could ever get in, or it should be a supermouse. But as far as I know, supermouses don't exist ;)
What is a care video? sorry, english is not my native language...
Sorry for the late reaction! You could try that, they surely won't kill each other :p, but I would personally not do that because for a kakariki, everything that moves is interesting. Especially if the moving thing is the same species :). so she would probably only disturb the other pair. It's better if you keep them in pairs. And in my opinion, you get the best result when you keep in pairs without other birds.
That's a king quail, female ;-)
What is in the left corner at 1:18
0:50 a mouse?
6yrs later but i think most aviaries people put quails in the bottom to pick up the seeds birds drop so mouse dont get it or have a reason to come into the cage
Quail🤔
My kakariki never let me touch them but after I enter the aviary they don´t hesitate to come play with my shoelaces or bite my shoes. Artoo, do you know of kakariki.net we sure would appreciate if you could join the forum and share your experiences keeping kakariki in a colony.
