Long tailed finch makes crow sound !!!!

AKA shafttail finch. Initially, I thought they looked like biker birds. I also called them the "bearded birds". Anyway, it turns out they make a crow-like sound. It's was surprising how so much noise can come out of such a tiny bird! Apparently the male is the only one that makes this sound (courtship). These are the only exotic finches that we own, and they're our personal favorite because they look great with their silky smooth feathers and all. These birds currently reside in a bigger flight cage, but this was recorded while they were temporarily in a smaller cage, due to washing their cage and air drying overnight.

Actually it’s a long tailed finch. Search up the long tailed finch on google and you find the same exact bird in the video so it’s called a long tailed finch, a shafttail and a peophila acuticauda well the peophila acutcauda is it’s scientific name. And the shafttail is it’s nick name, so the real name is a long tailed finch.

Do these breed well?

It's a NO for these two. I had better luck with the society & zebra finches.
