Oh my gosh those photo's are way adorable!

I would so consider entering photo down # 3 or 4 in a halloween contest!

If there are any around, I'd defenetly vote your your lil zebra finches! :D

There so tame looking, where they all handfed?

[ramanth]

Very nice! Those last two are especially adorable!

[3muttsandaboston]

Thanks for the lovely comments! Yeah all three were handfed. Buzz I got a few weeks ago. I had handfed him for my grandmother but she didn't feel like she had the energy to care for him anymore and her dog was trying to eat him so I brought him back home. Sprout is Buzz's sister.

omg i never knew you could have such tame finches?!?! Thats awesome, I bet it took alot of time to get them that used to humans. Did your grandma breed them?

Cute pics! How the heck do you teach birds to play dead? :confused:

OMG, they are ADORABLE! I am amazed at how well trained they are. You certainly have a way with animals. Those last pictures are adorable. They must be totally tolerate, eh?

No I bred them all. They were all handfed by me instead of their parents from the age of one week old.

I didn't teach them they just trust me enough to do it I guess.

It only took about 5 minutes to set up and take all the pictures. They are all very cooperative.

Thanks everyone for your comments.

Ok for all the ones who were wondering how on earth I get them to lay on their backs. Just watch this video. :)
