Stunning Lady Gouldian Finches feeding

  • These are some of my 2014 breeding finches in Sydney, Australia. Some I selected for head shape and others for colour, at the same time as trying to keep the gene pool broad. There's one particularly strongly coloured male Gouldian Finch - hIs chest is darker and his feathering more iridescent than the others. You can spot him first on a branch to the right, then he pecks at a piece of millet spray for a while, then hops across the front of the dish and hangs about on a rock to the left.
    I also really like the black headed hens (check out the white-breasted one), and of course the stunning red-headed, white-breasted cock birds.
    I have Gouldian Finches descended from this colony for sale in Sydney every December, and sometimes January. Check Gumtree under "Pittwater area". (Please don't enquire if you are not local, as there is no way for me to sell them to you :).)
    In this video they are eating soaked/sprouted finch mix seed. To learn how to make sprouted seed for finches, see this video: • How to sprout seed for...
    BTW, the background sound is tens of thousands of Cicadas chirping. They are so loud this year!

      I felt exactly the same way when I first saw Gouldian Finches! Thought they must be some super exotic species.
      Turned out I could buy and keep them easily in Australia. I've bred them to be extra nice since then, but the species is jaw-dropping.

      +michael ellis Thank you Michael! I do wonder how many people mark larger videos down just because their connection is slow or they don't know how to alter playback resolution, or as a reaction to the sound of the cicadas in the background that they presume is poor audio! So it may not be the content - because yeah, what's not to like?!?! :))

    • @Finchesca
      @Finchesca  9 ปีที่แล้ว

      mantidgirl It's sprouted seed. They really love it and it's very healthy for them. I've a video on how to make it in my channel. (Not sure how to post that link here - it won't let me.)

    • @mantidgirl
      @mantidgirl 9 ปีที่แล้ว

      Finchesca I have watched that video, a question concerning that, do you have to rinse out the seed often? i did have a try, but it didn't seem successful.

    • @Finchesca
      @Finchesca  9 ปีที่แล้ว

      mantidgirl I rinse at least twice a day, usually three times. After 24 hours the sprouts are usually not yet visible, but after 48 hours many are visible. This assumes a reasonably comfortable/warm air temperature. If the seed has not sprouted after this time, it may mean that your seed is no good - either it's very old or has been treated in some way that prevents sprouting. Try different, fresher seed.

    • @Finchesca
      @Finchesca  9 ปีที่แล้ว

      BJ Smith Sorry for the very late reply! Some of the colouring of the males, which has UV reflective properties, is enhanced by digital cameras. But yes, they do have very good colour. I feed quality seed (dry and green/fresh), egg, shells, mineral/vitamin/protein powders, and green vegetables. I also select for colour and shape very carefully each year, so they gradually get better with each season. :)

    • @Finchesca
      @Finchesca  8 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yes, it's widely acknowledged that taking these rare, stunning birds off the administratively weighty 'license-holders only' list some years ago, has turned the population around. There's nothing in the way of people keeping Gouldians now, so the captive population has grown massively - along with a fantastic community knowledge-base about their care and a strong conservation motivation.
