Health & Hygiene

Cage

A weekly clean of your cage is essential you should use a bird safe disinfectant and add fresh bedding. The finches toys like perches and dishes should be washed using warm water- do not use any soap on the equipment.

Dishes must also be cleaned weekly, with fresh food and water available on a daily basis for the Finch.

Bird bath/mist sprayer  

A bird bath is a great way for the finch to play but also to keep in good health. An alternative to the bird bath would be a bird spray where you spray your finch with a light misting everyday.

Sexing

 If your Finch is a male he will sing and if it is a female she will lay eggs. This is generally how to figure out it's sex.
