A zebra finch adapts to living in a new room (Part 1 of 2)

yes! Pepe is back, i love him, he is so precious. It seems there is something going on with his leg, poor lil dude, could be because of old age :( Pepe, I wish you and your owners all the best!

[@fradsou]

Thanks for loving Pepe so much! Your observation on his leg is spot on! He injured it several years ago. Fortunately, it healed more than good enough for him to continue his very active lifestyle and also to exhibit his territorial behavior up to this day!! Thanks for watching! :)

[@ianxd2353]

He will be more happy if you buy an other zebra finch.

[@fradsou]

You may have noticed in Pepe’s videos that he is extremely territorial, and more so because he has grown accustomed to having his room all to himself for over 10 years now. At this late stage in his life, I don’t want him getting involved in territorial disputes with another finch. I just want him to continue living his very happy, stress free life! Thanks for watching and showing concern for Pepe’s happiness! :)

@Dove Camp Glad to hear your zebra finches and ringneck doves are doing so well. They are lucky to have you as their caretaker! :)

[@hobbyfarmer1452]

Thank you for sharing. What a wonderful bird and video! I have over 100 zebra finches. I started with 6 one year ago. I loved them so much that I built an indoor (18x10x7ft ) aviary in the basement and outdoor (12x5) aviary for them. Very morning, I spent an hour with them. They got fresh water, fresh seeds, fresh veggies and spray millets. I would love to bring them upstairs to the house. But I have two cats and I don’t want to run any risks...

[@fradsou]

Thanks for watching! :) Wow - You truly do love zebra finches! Taking great care of over 100 of them in 2 large aviaries that you built for them! They are so very lucky to have you as their caretaker!:))

[@JUMALATION1]

I am so happy he is adapting well! Everything seems to be new and interesting for him, while other zebra finches get all stressed out by a move. I remember when we got 2 new zebbies (both male) from a rescue center 11 years ago; they were soooo nervous as soon as someone entered the room. Luckily they got used to us and lived long and fulfilling lives. You seem like a wonderful bird parent, and I'm sure Pepe gets all the attention and care he needs and more, thanks to you. I really enjoy all your videos of Pepe :)

[@fradsou]

Thank you for your very nice comments and also for sharing the beautiful story of your 2 male zebra finches!! You figured correctly that Pepe gets a lot of attention from me, so much so that he has adopted me as his surrogate bird friend. This is why I can record him up close without him getting alarmed, but only on the condition that I don’t touch his stuff which is pretty much every thing in his room! :) Thanks again for being a longtime fan of Pepe and enjoying all of his videos! :))

[@kenzilla1851]

Pepe is the spitting image of my Tattoo when he was still around. Behavior and all. I wish I could have given him his own room like you give Pepe but we barely had enough room in our house for us. Tattoo lived to be 14 years old and I hope Pepe has just as long a life as well. Thanks for the video. It was like a trip down memory lane.

[@fradsou]

So glad to hear that watching Pepe’s video gives you fond memories of your dear Tattoo. It is amazing how alike male zebra finches can look! It is obvious that you took fantastic care of Tattoo because he lived to be 14 years old! I feel certain that he was one happy little finch!:))

You need to get Pepe caliente a mama caliente, finches need to have little friends.

[@fradsou]

I’ve had Pepe for 12 years, which is way up there in age for a zebra finch! Since he has had his room all to himself for such a long time, he is set in his ways and extremely territorial as depicted in his videos, which is why I have concerns with him getting in territorial disputes if I were to introduce another finch, especially at this late stage in his life. Being a social bird, Pepe adopted me as his surrogate bird friend because I do spend lots of time in his room since my main computer is in there, and I also do my guitar practice in there. He interacts with me and often preens or take naps on me, but when he is in his territorial mood he will not hesitate to peck me if I touch any of his stuff which is pretty much every thing in his room, including my stuff - Lol. Thanks for watching and showing concern for Pepe’s well-being! :)

No doubt, Pepe is a very cute child. I actually use the word child for all my pets because they are my kids. I do have quiet a few. Cocktail, Fisher, lutino, Java and finches. My finches have laid eggs and by 25 the they should hatch. Keeping my fingers crossed.

[@vanessamowat7239]

You take such good care of your finch, looks like you spend time with him to. Throwing my 2 cents in, he needs a buddy, finches do not like to be alone. I've had finches for over 8 years now, have a avary of 21 right now, with 3 flying free in my place.

[@fradsou]

Thanks for watching and also for sharing your extensive experience with finches, and also for your concern that Pepe might be a lonely bird. Fortunately, Pepe hasn’t exhibited any signs that are typical of lonely birds such as plucking their feathers, showing a complete lack of interest in preening, eating or building numerous nests or just being plain inactive. Instead, over the last 10 years, Pepe has shown signs of being an extremely happy bird on a daily basis by merrily chirping his day away while building numerous nests, eating his millet seed, grit and greens, taking at least 2 baths a day and sunbathing in the direct sunlight several times a day; and finally of course, not hesitating to peck me whenever I touch or attempt to touch his stuff and my stuff too! As you correctly noted, I do spend an enormous amount of time in his room since my main computer is in it, and I also do all my guitar practicing in there. I think Pepe has adopted me as his surrogate bird friend, because he interacts with me on a daily basis by preening on me and also taking naps on me. I have made quite a few videos documenting his interaction with me. Pepe is extremely territorial, and has grown accustomed to having his room all to himself 24/7 for 10 years, and so I have no intention of getting him a partner. I just want him to continue enjoying his happy little life, and I do not want to risk him getting involved in any territorial disputes with another finch. Thanks for caring about Pepe’s well-being! :))

[@BLeesPets]

Pepe is so cute. Ever thought about getting him a buddy? I've had many finches in the past. So this was great to see the human with the finch but they are flocking birds so 2 birds are good🤓🐦🐦

[@fradsou]

I became Pepe’s caretaker 11 years ago when he was found as a wild fledgling, and ever since then he has been living a very happy, busy and carefree life. He interacts with me on a daily basis since I spend lots of time in his room as my main computer is in it, and I also do a lot of reading and guitar practicing in there. Even though he has adopted me as his surrogate bird friend, he does let me know on a regular basis that he is of higher rank than me by bossing me around by pecking me if I attempt to touch his stuff and my stuff too! Introducing another finch at this late stage in his life could be hazardous considering how extremely territorial he is as depicted in his videos. I just want little Pepe to continue living his super happy, stress free life without any territorial disputes. Thanks for watching and looking out for Pepe’s interest! :)

[@mareeeveee2074]

How’d you do it to tame him?? My finches won’t let me. Only the one I call Gus is barely knowing me after months of trying. He recognizes me when I call his name but still won’t let me get near. Really cute finch you got there. This is my first time watching your videos. I think I’ll watch some later.

[@fradsou]

I can understand how your finches behave because when I first became Pepe’s caretaker (11 years ago), he was very skittish and would fly away every time I approached him. Eventually, over the years he grew so accustomed to my presence that he is no longer afraid of me, especially since I spend lots of time in his room because my main computer is in it, and I also read books and do my guitar practicing in there. He interacts with me on his own accord, and so when he feels like bonding with me, he will come on me to preen or take a nap or just chirp away. When he is in his territorial mood, he won’t let me touch his stuff, which is pretty much every thing in his room - Lol. Wishing you all the best with your finches, and thanks for watching Pepe’s video! :)

Pepe is so endearing. Why does he like to sleep by the stapler?

The stapler is just one of the objects that Pepe liked to sleep by which is why I put it by the lamp stand when he was moved to a new home.

Pepe needs a señorita!

[@andreiter]

How is he so tame? Did you feed him as a baby? Hand-feed him the time you got him?

[@fradsou]

I did not get Pepe as a baby and I did not hand feed him because he was fully capable of feeding himself when I first got him after he was found late one evening in a boy’s restroom (by a custodian of a school) as a wild fledgling that had been somehow separated from his flock. Since the custodian couldn’t take care of him for that night because he had cats, I volunteered to become Pepe’s caretaker. I am flattered that you think I tamed Pepe, but the truth of the matter is that all of Pepe's behavior was completely that of his own making. All I did was give him the freedom to do whatever he wanted to do, and whenever, so that his wild instincts would remain intact such as being extremely territorial and build numerous nests at various locations in his room, some of which were hidden from view. I preferred that he slept in his cage at night, but NO NO NO … Pepe would decide for himself in which one of his nests he wanted to sleep in for the night. I did spend a lot of time in his room because my main computer was in it, and I also read and played my guitars in there. So, Pepe got accustomed to my presence in his room, and being a social bird he interacted with me on his own accord by deciding when he felt like bonding with me by landing on me to preen or take a nap or just happily chirp. When he got in his territorial mood, he wouldn’t let me touch his stuff which was pretty much every thing in his room, including my stuff - Lol. I was fortunate to have been his caretaker for 13 years! Thanks for watching! :

10years. Pepe’s coloring may appear to be different in the videos because over the years I have used a variety of standalone cameras, ipads, imacs, macbooks, and iphones under different lighting conditions. Just on my iphone alone, the coloring and picture quality is vastly different for the front (selfie mode) and the back camera.

he's so cute! how did you tame him?

[@fradsou]

Pepe’s behavior is that of his own making! I haven’t done anything special to tame him. It’s just that he has grown accustomed to my presence since I’ve been his caretaker for the last 12 years. Thanks for watching his video! :)

@@fradsou so cool!

Did u [Train] him

[@mohammedrayyanmohammedraye8593]

I guess

[@fradsou]

Other than being Pepe’s caretaker, I really haven’t done anything special to train him. It’s just that he has grown accustomed to my presence since I spend lots of time in his room (working on my computer or playing my guitar), which is why he interacts with me; thereby giving the impression that he has been trained by me. Thanks for watching! :)

I was having my ZEBRA FINCHES but they didn't get interacted with me [I play games on my computer] , I don't have them now

[@mariacelialimasanchez4028]

Should feed him more types of vegas

[@fradsou]

Pepe is a picky veggie eater with his preference being organic spinach and organic broccoli. Thanks for watching! :)

[@NoName-wq9eq]

Wow! He's so tame! How did you get him so tame?

[@fradsou]

I am flattered that you think I tamed Pepe, but the truth of the matter is that his behavior is completely that of his own making! It’s just that I have been his caretaker for 11 years, which is why he is so comfortable with my presence; thereby, giving the impression that I tamed him. Being a social bird, he interacts with me on his own accord by napping or preening on me; however, when he is in his territorial mood, he doesn’t hesitate to peck me if I touch his stuff which is pretty much everything in his room - Lol. Thanks for watching! :)

@@fradsou I have a new pet canary for a year now. he's very comfortable around me. Right now he won't let me touch him but I hope over time our relationship will lie yours and Pepe. :)

[@fradsou]

Glad to know you have a canary. It will over time bond with you! Wishing you and your canary all the very best! :)

[@CheesyCheese13]

Is it male or female

[@fradsou]

Pepe is a male zebra finch with the typical characteristics of a male zebra finch: bright orange cheeks, white speckled brown feathers and a black band across his breast. Thanks for watching! :)

[@Coolgamer-nv5mk]

Wait how come Pepe looks more different is he ok

[@fradsou]

Pepe is fine. He may look different to you because he is getting old as you have noticed in another comment you made. Thanks for watching! :)

[@Sidewayz455]

Oh my, what happened to his leg?

[@fradsou]

Not to worry! Pepe’s leg looks worse than it really is. He did injure it several years ago. Fortunately, it healed good enough for him to continue living his very active lifestyle and also to continue exhibiting his territorial behavior by not hesitating to peck me whenever I touch his stuff! Thanks for watching and for your concern for Pepe’s well-being! :))

[@tanvimahi1889]

Hi pepe I also have 4 finch

[@fradsou]

Glad to know you also have finches, they are adorable little birds! Thanks for watching! :)

[@kidddee544]

Why he is the spittin image of my finch, the widower "Dezi". He likes spinach too!

[@fradsou]

Yup, male zebra finches can look so alike and like similar things too! Thanks for watching!

[@akky7036]

Please tell me what's that white thing ...?

[@fradsou]

The white nest building material consists of cotton and strips of tissue paper. Thanks for watching! :)

[@akky7036]

From where could I buy that materials ....!!

[@fradsou]

It's just any regular cotton such as the kind that women use to remove their makeup, and can be bought in a store such as Walgreens. Regarding the tissue paper, I use Kleenex tissue paper and tear it in little strips and leave it for Pepe to use as nesting material.

[@GoldiesOdisha]

Why don't u get him a girlfriend ❤️

[@fradsou]

Sorry for the late reply. I just saw your question when I was replying to another commenter. Pepe has grown accustomed to having his room all to himself for the last 12 years, and so he is set in his ways which is why he is so extremely territorial as documented in some of his previous videos. At this late stage in his life, I have no plans to disrupt his very happy and stress free life by getting him involved in resolving territorial disputes with another finch. Thanks for watching and looking out for Pepe’s well-being!

[@tanvimahi1889]

Pepe is biting you why not you bit pepe

[@fradsou]

HaHa! Don't want to take the chance because Pepe will then peck me really hard! Thanks for watching his videos! :)

[@abrahamzakreia1351]

So u can taem your finches I thought it's social bird can't live with human

[@fradsou]

Since Pepe has been living with me for over 10 years, I think he has adopted me as his surrogate bird friend! As documented in his videos, he is doing remarkably well! Thanks for watching! :)

@@fradsou and why is peepee beside the staples

[@fradsou]

Pepe seems to like the stapler because he made a nest between the stapler and the tissue box next to it. In the beginning of this video you can see that he actually slept for night in this particular nest of his!

[@RPPLZ_Gaming]

@@fradsou what gender is pepe

[@nadirshaa6436]

Yr ak..female finshes or rkhlo

[@sarakarimy1000]

Pepe needs a female mate .

[@fradsou]

I’ve had Pepe for almost 12 years now, which is way up there in age for a zebra finch! I adopted him when he was found as a wild fledgling that somehow got separated from his flock. Being a social bird, Pepe has adopted me as his surrogate bird friend because I do spend lots of time in his room since my main computer is in there, and I also practice my guitar in there. Nevertheless, Pepe regularly reminds me that he is of higher rank than me by bossing me around by pecking me if I attempt to touch his stuff and my stuff too! Pepe is set in his ways and accustomed to having his room all to himself. As documented in his videos, he is extremely territorial, which is why I have no plans to disrupt his very happy and stress free life by introducing another finch, especially at this very late stage in his life. Thanks for watching and looking out for Pepe’s well-being!
