My Current Setup

Here is how my current cage setup is laid out.  I have two stacks of three 30" dividable flight cages, for a total of six cages.  The cages are located in my home office, and contain around 20-25 society finches.  The number varies due to occasional selective breeding.

Cage #1 - M/F/F trio, all fawn pied. Male is crested.  They are currently incubating a clutch of eggs.

Cage #2 - Community cage with:
  1. Kenny (chocolate pied male - two dots on head)
  2. Lucy (fawn pied female)
  3. Ethel (fawn pied female)
  4. Nameless (fawn pied crested male - green band - from Cage #5)
  5. Elvis (chocolate pied male - "sunvisor" on head" - from Cage #3)
  6. Dolly (near-white fawn pied female)
  7. Ricky (fawn pied male - navy blue band - from Cage #3)
Cage #3 - M/F/F, all chocolate pied. Male is crested. Four youngsters (orange, yellow, black, white bands). Two are crested. Too soon to tell on the other two.

Cage #4 - Not in use

Cage #5 - Community cage with:
  1. Puff (fawn pied crested female)
  2. Pepper (chocolate pied male)
  3. Nameless #1 (fawn pied female)
  4. Nameless #2 (fawn pied female)
  5. Nameless #3 (chocolate pied crested male)
  6. Everest (chocolate pied crested female)
  7. Turkey (chick, pink band)
  8. Two unnamed hatchlings (not yet banded)
Cage #6 - Not in use

Note to self:  Current available band colors are red, purple, light blue, and gray.
