Goldfinch hybrid experiences
Hello finch keeping people, does anyone here have canary-goldfinch hybrids like these two birds of mine? I took them in as rehomers. They needed a new home urgently, so I had to make a quick decision. It has been diificult trying to find information, so I would love to hear about your experiences. Especially, what kind of differences compared to canaries ( I am used to keeping canaries ).
My biggest concern is the male is chasing my canary male relentlessly now. My birds live together free-roaming in their own room usually, but now I need to the two males separately. Are things gonna be better when it is no longer spring I am in Scandinavia)? The hybrids came here 5 weeks ago, and the hybrid male was friendly at first.
I'd really like to keep the hybrids but I hating keeping my birds in cages. If it is only a few months every spring/ summer, that is okay though.
