We got asked to take in a baby Society finch who was being picked on in the flock he was born into. So we picked him up & then went for a female for him. We are in love with these 2 little ones even though they have only been with us 2 days! So does anyone else have these feathered little ones?

Gorgeous little birds. I'd never even heard of them.

LOVE Society's, what a beautiful pair . I have Zebra Finches but would like Society's. They are much more easy going than Zeebs and will live very nicely in groups, spice finches are on my list too

Thanks, we hadn't seen them b4 either, I just ran into a local chain store to grab something out of their pet department & there was a guy there that overheard me say something to my daughter & he spoke up & answered. We got talking about our feathered pals. I said I'd always wanted finches & he offered me his baby that was being picked on. It wasn't until the next day when I picked him up that he told me he was a society finch.. Eventually I'd like pairs of Owls & Gouldian too but to do that I'd have to invest in a bigger finch cage LOL

I read somewhere that the Canary is a species of finch. Is this correct or am I dreaming again?
