After viewing your video, we installed a a wire mesh and grass nesting arrangment, and my zebra finches have taken to it like ducks to water, thanks for the great idea!
I guess Im asking randomly but does anybody know of a method to get back into an instagram account?? I was stupid lost my password. I would appreciate any tips you can give me!
@Kameron Gatlin I really appreciate your reply. I found the site on google and Im in the hacking process now. Takes quite some time so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
no the water is shallow and does not get very cold at all where i lived. after this video you might see my maggot breeding set up, my wife was stoked when i started them.
@TheFinchMan101 thanks for the comment, no i didnt build it but i designed it. just watched your yellow gouldians they are very nice birds, good luck with them, are they breeding?
yes the gouldians dont care too much what colour their partner is. and the colours that come out in the young vary. the finches make their own holes and nests, but a little help to start them off doesnt hurt, just put the grass in and make a hole with your fist. thanks for the comment.
Just wondering why you have your perches so high up and close to your clear sheeting. Doesn't it get hot in Summer? I know you're in NSW (I'm in Perth) but surely you have some hot summer days? Also wondering why you don't have more perches at the entrance end of your enclosure, or did I not just see them? Love the grasses and bracken in the wire for nesting :)
No zebs they just take over and stop the others from breeding. I had a lot of gouldians, and a pair each of ruddies, orange breasts, cordon blues, red face parrot finches, plums painteds star finches st helenas I think that's it. As for winter this was at the Gold Coast qld so very warm
hey mate awesome aviary, I'm trying build an aviary and been looking everywhere for ideas in terms of natural habitat setup etc. perfect example. do you get the various coloured gouldian finches breeding? offspring colour? and the idea of that hay stack like thing hanging for the birds to build a nest in is crazy. Do they just make their own holes and way into the hay stack? keep up the good work mate, cheers
@benrayjay well i don't think i've had them long enough to start breeding but im sure they will start soon. i have noticed some signs of singing and dancing so i guess thats a good sign.
how do you clean the aviary? im planning of also building one in the outdoors of my home but im not sure how i will clean the whole thing. and im also thinking of placing a stream so birds can shower and drink from there.
Really nice natural aviary:-) Do you buy the river sand or just go get it from any river and clean it? About how deep is it? How long does it last? Thanx !
Wow! incredible set up! this is great! i really love the nests in the hay! so clever! where in queensland where you when you had this? i live in cairns. i am about to build an aviary using pvc pipping as the frame. i have seen a few and it is so much cheaper. again, i adore your aviary! keep it up!! :)
Amazing aviary! I would love one exactly like it. Is there any way you could tell me the dimensions and the materials used? I'm thinking of building one like this. I'm sure this this will help a lot of people. :)
Hey Ben, I know this video was awhile ago but I'm just staring out with my finch (obsession) hobby... This single flight aviary and side / back storage room is great for a beginner enthusiast! Where can a beginner buy one of these set ups please? Cheers!
I now live in Dalby and have an aviary around the size of yours. I have budgies cockatiels and some coturnix quail. I would like to get some zebra finches or Goulding Great video by the way

Cách làm của anh thật hay rất đáng để học hỏi!
Thank you for being such a good caretaker. I get very saddened by some of these videos.

Awesome cage dude!!!
Nice video
So good... Too good
I like it, but I think you need a few more branches and perches for them.
Nice aviary mate!
Waw very good job god bless you
It’s lovely xxx
What a amazing aviary! I am thinking of making a mini waterfall in mine too!
That’s a dream !!!

I will be building more aviaries in the near future and my brother is doing the camera work for me, he is a tech head so should be good,stay tuned
nice aviary and nice birds you got. did you build that cage yourself?
What are the bugs? & Who eats them? thanks for the video!
For your mealworms, try adding 1/4 cabbage and half a potato
Thanks for the information...Don't know where I'd ever find that here in Arkansas...
how do you clean the aviary? im planning of also building one in the outdoors of my home but im not sure how i will clean the whole thing. and im also thinking of placing a stream so birds can shower and drink from there.
Really nice natural aviary:-) Do you buy the river sand or just go get it from any river and clean it? About how deep is it? How long does it last? Thanx !
Great, i am going to do the ssme this
Looking good! Need that your breeding your own mealworms. Question: what do finches cost where you live?
Wow! incredible set up!
this is great!
i really love the nests in the hay! so clever!
where in queensland where you when you had this?
i live in cairns. i am about to build an aviary using pvc pipping as the frame. i have seen a few and it is so much cheaper.
again, i adore your aviary!
keep it up!! :)
@TheScaletIbisNW make sure it is completely free from wind and u might be able to have some finches, they hate breezes.
Thanks
Amazing aviary! I would love one exactly like it. Is there any way you could tell me the dimensions and the materials used? I'm thinking of building one like this. I'm sure this this will help a lot of people. :)
yes, i sold most of my birds that i bred
no sound? oh wait there it is.
Can you make a video on the nest boxes you use,the mill worm breeding,what finches you have to build there nests for ect..
I will do one for you soon
OK thank you :)
What kind of nesting material are you using...I can't find anything that looks like that.?
how much did it cost you to build it?
desde espana . maravilloso aviario
great avery mate, do you mind if i ask how much it cost to construct
$3000
Hey Ben,
I know this video was awhile ago but I'm just staring out with my finch (obsession) hobby...
This single flight aviary and side / back storage room is great for a beginner enthusiast!
Where can a beginner buy one of these set ups please?
Cheers!
Hao Nguyen custom built aviaries Mt Gravatt QLD
Thanks Ben!
what do you use as the bottom? How do you clean the bottom? thanks
Do they use that kind of nest box?
@Rev1981 anywhere from $30 a pair up to $120 for your average finch
how do you have yellow finches
nice
november grass from sugar cane areas around gold coast
How often do you have to clean this? This looks like a pain in the arse to clean.
do you give them heat in winter
😘😘😘😘😘🤩🤩🤩😍😍😍
Nice⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I take it you're not growing zebra finches in that massive aviary? What type of birds do you have? How cold does it get in winter?
Very nice. What kind of climate you have where you live?
Must be in Australia or New Zealand?
beautiful my friend beautiful
sweep the floor with a broom once a week or so. i also wanted a stream but found it very expensive, would be nice though. good luck

I live in Oregon and I fear having an outdoor aviary would not work as well. I know some people have them...but I don't think it work.
they are called gouldian finches, a native australian finch. they are pretty arent they!!
if its winter can the finches cope where i live
What temperature range can they endure?
+Pfsif it gets to minus 10c up to 40c here but the main thing is to keep cool breezes off them, that's what really upsets them
@netanel296 my gouldians love them and this year my red face parrots. have moved in
where od u live???????
@josh81811 they do not need it as i live in a sub tropical climate
Nice job i wonder if you have goldfinch because i don't listen their song
Mourad Rabia
whats the 3 th tubon the top?
storage
red fountain grass, i think is the name of the grass.
mate , that would be very hot with that clear sheet on the roof .
Not in Glen Innes NSW
There how to make another video with more image quality?
@maxicanpride1 $3000 plus a grand for the concrete footing.
Was Qld now NSW
River sand, and I rake it once a week or so
🐦، 👍
anyone know what i could type into google to find that mesh framing on aviary???
Iuuuiiuuuiiiuiiuiuiuuiuuii
Hey Olivya it could be a lot of things, som
Do you live in Glenn Innes
Paddy Kelly yes I do
That's cool I lived in Inverell for 10 years
Paddy Kelly Inverell has heaps of bird people and even a good bird club
I now live in Dalby and have an aviary around the size of yours. I have budgies cockatiels and some coturnix quail. I would like to get some zebra finches or Goulding
Great video by the way
