Orange Bishop male building nest in captive breeding

The Orange Bishop Weaver (Euplectes franciscanus) is a beautiful bird which requires a lot of care and space in order to breed and live happily. Unlike most other cage birds it has not been breed in captivity for a long time. Orange bishop weavers are native of sub-Saharan Africa from Senegal to Ethiopia and south to Nigeria, Uganda and Kenya. Although these Weavers are very timid towards humans the males have one of the most beautiful plumage in the reign of aviculture. When the cock is in colour the plumage around his head will become of very bright orange while the rest of his body will darken considerably. When out of color, the cock resembles the hen (who never changes color) and juveniles: tawny brown with dark streaks on the head and back, a light brown chest, and cream belly.
