I was given a pair of finches as a Christmas gift. I have never
had birds before and would like any information about them. Also I
need to know what kind of cages are best for them and good places
in the Maynard area to buy a cage because the one they are in is
to small.

As far as cages go......I would reccommend the Fish Nook located
in Acton on Route 2A. They have a very good selection of cages
and books that you will find helpful. The staff is also very
knowledgable on a wide variety of birds. Hope you will enjoy your
living gift.

HI!
What kind of finches do you have? Your cage should be large enough
for them to fly freely. Larger birds need exercise, but can do
so standing on perches, and are frequently let out of cages...Finches
however, need lots and lots of room to exercise their flight muscles!
I breed finches! Please feel free to call me at the aviary evenings
at 603/880-8984! I am always available to help!!! If you'd rather
send mail, well, you can send it on this node, but I have to share
an account for now!
Congratulations on your new family!!!
