You have three variety there. The common orange cheek. The black cheek and the beige . It’s advisable never mix them all together. Don’t destroy the nice colour you have. Male have check with bird orange and female has lighter cheek and no cheek patch. Young Zebra finch are born with black beak and later in life colour start to appear on the beak. Breeding are quiet simple and provide grass or coconut material. They are happily to breed. Word of advise don’t give to much nest material. Many of them will practice nest layer building. ( building a nest on top of another). Best is after each chick left the nest. The nest box is clear out and clean. Left empty so that female can build new nest. In that way you can minimize mite and other disease. They also require some cuttlefish bone and mineral sand as calcium as that made female to have strong egg shelf. Some board band vitamin in water once a month. Bird Pearch don’t be too big as it will develop feet problem. Black check should be breed on the own. Genetic throw back will happen. Try to source a pied variety. Yet Very so often you will get a full white zebra finch without any marking with a red dark beak. The baby can be hand feed and train to become very tame. Occasionally fly off and return to you on your hand. That is a achievement. All the best and hope more video of your zebra finch.
Don’t do community breeding. In the wild the are ok because they are all same species. A common orange cheek. In aviary breeding… different variants are evolve. If you mix you just mess it all up. You have few good strain. Keep it pure breed simple. Don’t be lazy and mixing it all up. Example orange cheek with black throat or head and others.
Congrats po for acquiring the dazzling breeders of Zebra Finches, Sir Dex truly an amazing addition to the DW Farm! We are so excited for this new project po. 🤗
Let me tell you about them, change there water daily, change there food about every few days. Finches are so cute i have some myself. They learn there songs from the dad bird. The stripes on there chest (zebra finch) thats why they call them zebra finches. Fun fact, the finch is one is one of the smallest birds in the world with most being native to the southern Hemisphere. Did you no that a flock of finches is called a charm?
I would personally follow the advice of the person you brought them from. Leg bands mean the breeders have thought carefully about the genetic blueprint and you won’t be in breeding. Maybe you could try some community breeding a bit later. Sometimes it about quality not quantity to start with, they are beautiful happy birds 😊
I'd say go for colony breeding with the option for selecting a pair now and then, if you want to develop special caracteristics. You still can reintroduce the pair back to their peers, later. Dexter, are you from Sri Lanka? Cause every word you say sends me back to that beautiful place. Keep on going and may your dreams become reality!
Imagine breeding all your goldfish varieties together at once, within 2 generations almost all of the fancy genetics will be gone.Seperate these into matched pairs and get some wild types for your colony.much love from England.
They can be messy birds lol. They prefer an open birdbath as opposed to enclosed one. Cages with a slide out bottom with news or wax paper on it can make cleaning a little easier. Coconut fider or dry grass best for nesting material Calcium source is important for breeding. I used cuddle fish bone. You can use a regular enclosed basket for them to nest in. I use to make covers for milk cartons and mounted them to the outside of the cage with a lid. You can monitor the chicks a lot easier this way. But it's always best not to disturb them as much as possible. I would just cut 2 L or 1 L milked cartons in half and use the bottom half as a nesting box.
Finches are awesome hardy birds. They’re like watching fish swim around-very soothing. Ok raised many varieties in the past. You’ll love them! I did! Get some Society Finches cause they’re good parents & surragant parents & will rear other eggs or babies that aren’t cared for. Enjoy! They’ll reproduce fast- trust me! Good luck! You’ll do great!
Zebra finches are good choice to breed sir dexter especially for the bigginer They are easy to breed and very adoptive bird..love ur new project good luck sir dexter ❤
this is the reason i subscribed your channel you are humble person and your channel it to exchange the hobbies info ( share ) in many ways and god bless you dexter n family n your team too..greeting from Malaysia
I used to have Zebra Finches...they are very smart little birds , they aren't much bigger than hummingbirds and they can hover in place similarly, the mature males have bright red/orange beaks, the females have orange beaks...and BOTH take care of their babies !

7:07 the last zebra on the right that is almost all orange is extremely rare variation. In fact I see a few rare variations in your community. Makes me jealous lol.
Soon more bird more build how about pigeon race did you try to breed it or nothing hope soon I watch your blog mr Dexter you have coloney of pigeon race thank you iam so happy to see your farm and enjoy watching gudluk and stay safe..
Hi brother i had 50 pair from my experience separate breeding will be the best because when colony breeding sometimes the pair will be changed and if chicks feel out from the nest we don't know from which parents chick For Nesting material green type of grasses and pine leaves paper Tissue will help them to make there nest finches loves to get bath every time
Please do not put them into a colony. I have tried colony breeding and the productivity was very very less. U will get 10 times higher yield if u do individual breeding. Best nesting material is coconut fiber. U can use pots for breeding.
agreed, I only have one brooding pair with strong enough genetics to handle the stress of nesting in the colony, the rest incubate until the eggs hatch then eat/throw the babies out & continue laying. once separated that all stops.
Finches are very territorial. Not sure if a really big cage will combat prevent problems, but in smaller ones, couples will chase off/harass any other finches nearby.
U have some good and rare quality birds for example, you have black breasted zebra finch, black cheek, zebra finch and black zebra finch u should keep those ones in separate cages
Can you make a natural colony for this java? Like tree, waterfalls, so they will create their own nest, i have finches too, they love to take a bath everyday 2 times
#1 - What’s the bike at 0:47 #2 - Need advise from any experienced regarding controlling the breeding of finches. Is it ok to make two separate cages. Putting all the male birds in one cage and the females in another. And for breeding keeping a separate cage, where we can add selected pairs for breeding. Or else to keep the colony as it is and avoid providing nesting box and materials so they will stop over breeding. Bcz they start the next clutch before the chicks are matured and avoiding the chicks from feeding. Sometime chicks are forced out from the nest before their usual nestout maturity.
you can copy the design of youre colony breeding the bigger the better they can fly freely and you can also put other beautiful finches like gouldian canary society and owl finches these beautiful finch will make youre colony more productive and you can feed them like canary seed millet and worm and egg food
putting the pairs in separate cages will require much more time and effort in terms of feeding/maintenance when compared to just putting all the birds into one community cage.
I believe all birds should be free to fly and never be bound by a cage for the pleasure of the human eye when they bring so much more pleasure eye when they are free to fly 😥
They are not has so sweet as they look . Cold wind should not hit them. Temperatures above 27 degree. Too much work in individual cage but for commercial purposes only individual cage is advisable. They will through the chick's out side 😅🙉
I have a pair in a nice cage with a nest and daily clean water for their baths. I don’t want any babies so I watch for their eggs and can easily remove it with a slender long handled spoon. I place it on the floor and crack it open. The female quickly flies down and eats the shell. Her mate also eats but she gets the first bite.

I love it

I'm from Indonesia. I also studied local sparrow farming. I feel happy when the birds are raised ❤😊
They can be messy birds lol. They prefer an open birdbath as opposed to enclosed one. Cages with a slide out bottom with news or wax paper on it can make cleaning a little easier.
Coconut fider or dry grass best for nesting material
Calcium source is important for breeding. I used cuddle fish bone.

Nice video
Decker what part of the philippine are you in again my wife from there so may be we come see you sometime
Please do not put them into a colony. I have tried colony breeding and the productivity was very very less. U will get 10 times higher yield if u do individual breeding. Best nesting material is coconut fiber. U can use pots for breeding.
If they have enough space they will do well in colony
@@alexp7842 they reproduce so quickly that any space won't be sufficient for them.
Colony is fine with proper parameters
@@alexp7842p😂❤
agreed, I only have one brooding pair with strong enough genetics to handle the stress of nesting in the colony, the rest incubate until the eggs hatch then eat/throw the babies out & continue laying. once separated that all stops.
i love the video that are some nice looking birds
I have found one living at my apartment complex. It can straight to a feeder when I put food in it.
Good luck and God bless ❤🎉😊
Wow, their so cute...😊
Excellent Totally Excellent 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍😁😁😁😁😁😁😁
Healthy finches 😁❤️
wow zebra finches... 👍👍❤
Love ur videos. Really appreciate ur love for nature
Congratulations Dexter❤
Nice 👍
Every morning when I took the sheet off my zebras cage. They'd all cry out together at once. One of the best parts of waking for me back in the day.
Have you ever considered raising the ' The European Gold Finch ' Dexter ? The're very beautiful . . Cheers
For me sir dexter i prepare for community breeding on that bird same as what you did on your african love bird..
Can i have a pair of cocktails?. . I wish I had a pair . Heheh
Please
Finches are very territorial. Not sure if a really big cage will combat prevent problems, but in smaller ones, couples will chase off/harass any other finches nearby.
sir paano magbreed ng zebra finches meron kasi akong 1 pair nagbuild pa lang ng nest eh paano ba magcondition sila magbreed po?
Chickens mo naman next sir
U have some good and rare quality birds for example, you have black breasted zebra finch, black cheek, zebra finch and black zebra finch u should keep those ones in separate cages
❤❤
Ganda boss...pano po mka bili ng birds nyan ...
Wher i can Buy that birds??
Hello Dominicana Repúblic🇩🇴🇩🇴🇩🇴🇩🇴🇩🇴🇩🇴🇩🇴🇩🇴
Have you nice day
If the female is stressed to get off the egg you’ll lose eggs but if u give them small boxes and nest I think it will work
sir dex sana java finch next 😍
جميل والله ❤
אהבתי מאוד את הסירטון תיתחדש על פינקים זברה❤
Was I the one who suggested this??
Wow it's beautiful..zebra finch..i guest better to put on colony cage..than single cage
Anyone grabs a GoPro thinks they are Fredrico Fellini. Stay natural
Dexter you have lost so much weight are you ok ?
yes I'm ok I reduced my Carbo intake
Sir i always watch your videos
Where's your place
how about gouldia finch and canary they are more expensive and much sort off you can put them with zebra finch
Hello, just wondering how many hectare is your farm?
Good morning po
Give carrot beetroot in small pieces add cuttle bone these are best enough calcium
Also give some soil for sand bath
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I want one about the way you surround the garden with bamboo
Hi, I am in India.....

Mabenta po ito, may 3 pair na ko malapit na mag itlog din ang isang pair, vitamins nila selectrogen once a week lang ako,
you can copy the design of youre colony breeding the bigger the better they can fly freely and you can also put other beautiful finches like gouldian canary society and owl finches these beautiful finch will make youre colony more productive and you can feed them like canary seed millet and worm and egg food
Bmw bike 😁🙂
Dexter you should always transport birds in a darkened box
putting the pairs in separate cages will require much more time and effort in terms of feeding/maintenance when compared to just putting all the birds into one community cage.

Free them from the cages!
colony finches breeding is best ....but separate mutations for good results ...put colony for normal zebra finches

These Zebra Finches are Native to Australia, including Budgies and Cockatiels.
👍🏻and the gouldian finch as well
@@francoisvanwyk8361 I know, but he doesn't have Gouldian Finches.
If u want to put them in colony … put black cheek, black breast, black face together…then put orange breast and fawns.
Sir payo naman lagi binabasag ng finches ko ung mga egg nila anu dapat ko gawin
Clever advocat 57
Do beautiful zebra
The thumbnail is so fake oml
These are best birds for breeding,their biggest issues are stealing nettting materials from each others
why is it that almost all of your titles are exaggerated?
Where did f8nd that birds?...
They are not has so sweet as they look . Cold wind should not hit them. Temperatures above 27 degree. Too much work in individual cage but for commercial purposes only individual cage is advisable. They will through the chick's out side 😅🙉
Bro what's best to breed them in colony Or separate cages? And why do kick out their chick??
I got a smaller one than the zebra finch, orange breast waxbil
Dexter please don't put in a small cage
Make a aviary for them or ells they will get sick
I have a pair in a nice cage with a nest and daily clean water for their baths. I don’t want any babies so I watch for their eggs and can easily remove it with a slender long handled spoon. I place it on the floor and crack it open. The female quickly flies down and eats the shell. Her mate also eats but she gets the first bite.
