Cut Throat Finch


Things to remember
Nutrition
Feed her 1-2 teaspoons per day of a pellet or seed-based, fortified finch diet.
High metabolic rate
Because a finch's metabolism is very active, food should be available at all times.
Long-term companions
Before purchasing, be aware that a finch requires a long-term commitment of approximately 5 years.
Supplements
Be sure to provide a cuttle bone in your finch's cage at all times.
Habitat
Finches like to fly, so when selecting a cage remember that length is better than height. Your finch's cage must be large enough for her to comfortably stretch her wings and fly from perch to perch. The bigger the cage, the better.
