Absolutely surreal!!! It's almost impossible to believe that they are real!!! I had to watch this video several times to enjoy the various birds you have. You must be so proud!
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.
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.)
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.
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.
+petrochemicals4u Yes, I breed to emphasise the blue behind the neck. I have succeeded in that. It occurs to me that I could take the blue quite far down - create a blue-necked Gouldian!
you should and must be so proud of your goodies, as fine as I can remember seeing in a long time, full credit to you, and how anybody could mark such a beautiful video down! beggars belief. Regards to you and yours.
+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, very beautiful birds indeed! I have brown finches and Sparrows in my back yard. Your Bird's colors is what drew me to this video. I will do a little research and perhaps get some of these birds to mingle with the Sparrows and finches. Thank you for the video. Have a good day!
Is that multiple variety of Gouldian finch...? So stunning. In Indonesia they still cost quite expensive. By the way greetings from West Kalimantan Indonesia.
Ich hatte 2 Weibchen und 2 Männchen zusammen mit Kanarienvögeln in der Voiliere. Cleopatra und Cesar und Mona Lisa und Rembrand. Diese Namen hatte ich den 4 gegeben. So süß. Bei den Golds haben die Männchen die kräftigeren Farben.
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.
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. :)
George Lincoln, I think your TH-cam settings may be preventing me from replying to your question directly. The third blue bird is a female Cordon Bleu Finch. (Male Cordon Bleus are similar, but with slightly more blue and dark red cheek patches.)
I know! Crazy, isn't it? I remember the first time I ever saw Gouldian Finches in a cage in a bird shop - there was smoke coming off my heels as I screeched to a halt. Since then I have bred them to be quite big, bright and shapely, so these birds are even better than most.
noellana Yes it is. Fortunately, the rules changed years ago to allow people to keep them domestically without a license (in Aus). That has increased their numbers and done a lot to help ensure their overall survival.
I read the population is just 2400 and people were still trapping them from the wild for the pet trade as recent as 1981. Wonder if they will truly make a population comeback to previous historical numbers. Is it possible? Is there really a robust breeding campaign?
Please help me. I lost a lot of Golden Finches. The reason is that the fetus completes its growth and dies inside the egg, although the eggs are moistened with water in order to increase the moisture and facilitate its reduction.
I know! I had a tree snake in there last year (ate a sleeping parrot finch then couldn't fit back out through the wire), and saw a marsh snake under the external water tank last week. Eek.

how to know if they're male or female?
Wonderful mutations- extremely cute gouldians! Am I right in thinking you also had some lovely cordon bleus hopping about?
Great birds!

Ich hatte 2 Weibchen und 2 Männchen zusammen mit Kanarienvögeln in der Voiliere. Cleopatra und Cesar und Mona Lisa und Rembrand. Diese Namen hatte ich den 4 gegeben. So süß.
Bei den Golds haben die Männchen die kräftigeren Farben.

THESE FINCHES ARE NEARLY EXTINCT IN THE WILD HERE IN AUSTRALIA... GOOD TO SEE THAT AT LEAST THE POPULATION IS STILL FLOURISHING IN CAPTIVITY.

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.

Wow! But what's the little blue and beige one in the back? Is it a juvenile, or some other bird?
What fun! How did you apply there little lipstick so perfectly? :) Well done Lady Gouldian!
Nice 🐤🐥🐦
Nice birds.
Look at all those ViewSonic birds.
Very beautiful
Just wow birds
Jakie piekne ptaszki kolorowe jak ny ich umalowano super
Magnifique !!!
Truly dazzling to the eye--GOD'S creation is limitless!
Evolution.
@@typingcat And human breeders had a hand in it as well.
They are so pretty it's like they aren't even real.

I just subbed. What country or city is this in?
:) Sydney, Australia.
okay, keep them away from snakes and spiders, please. jk

КРАСАВЦЫ ОТ ПРИРОДИ...ПРОСТО СУПЕР
ils sont Absolument magnifiques ! beaux en forme beaux en couleur ...manque plus le chant et le tour est joué !!
SO MANY BIRBS
Finches are very pretty, but they're so small and fragile looking! How long do they live?
Skyrilla Yes they are tiny under those feathers - just 15-20g. They live 5 or 6 years, or a bit longer with good luck.
What breed is the blue and grey finch that drops down at 00:19? He/she is so pretty!
That's a Cordon Bleu Waxbill hen :)
Thank you so much! I may have to find one ;)
Are they for sale? How much does their costs?
Aves belíssimas de cinco cores nunca tinha visto fantastico
