Very nice set up 👌👌

[@johnperez2898]

Great job 👏 would love and update on your setup

[@markschack5668]

I build my cages so that they can slide through an 80" doorway. On these cages I tried to get as many as possible so there are 5 at 15" tall each. I have since learned that that is a bad idea for long term cleanliness. Now I go stacks of 4, 15" tall cages 79" tall and leave the bottom open to allow easy cleaning under them. I hope that answers your question.

[@nivencharleskemp3468]

Hi Mark, do you have any new footage of your cages. I love the setup.

[@moniquesolanilla6767]

Nice video. I love your cages. Do you sell their babies? I was looking for a pair of strawberries finches .

[@Khanthecomputerguy]

Thank you for great videos. What kind of lights are you using in those cages? Are they available at home depot or lowes? Thanks

[@markschack5668]

Khan The Computer Guy I manufacture lights for bird cages store.breedingcage.com/

[@leaovirgem]

do you put rings band on the birds?

[@KAther-ho2ng]

Nice video i bought a pair of finches but I'm still confused how to make their cage i did put a wooden box put the nest's grass inside but they don't go inside i don't know what to do i keep them in my room not out because it's too hot outside is it ok?

[@valeriestevens5250]

I love the video. I want to breed exotic finches when I retire and this type of video is good learning material. One question I have is where can I buy the coconut fibers? I haven't had much luck searching on-line, but a lot of finch breeders recommend it for nesting material so it must exist somewhere. Can you tell me where to find it? Thank you very much.

Where do you get the monkey grass?

[@ynyspreece2733]

So what height do you recommend now?

[@TheRedBearded]

Hey Mark, a general strawberry question for you: have you ever had female who sings? I just purchased a couple and the one that looks female sings more than the male.

[@markschack5668]

John Stimmer, yes females will sing. Some more than others

[@jeffeden7013]

What are you feeding?

[@abbasghani8911]

wow i thought they will never breed in captivity

[@BXSALSA]

Hi how high are the cages

[@shuvotalukder73]

Strawberry Finch?? Where is your breeding nesting

[@markschack5668]

Strawberries want to build their own out of grasses and fiber. Mine never even looked twice at a wicker nest

[@shuvotalukder73]

@@markschack5668 I need some tips From you for my strawberry finch, if possible can you help me?

[@NyteFryte]

Why do my cordons push there babys out? Also they don't eat meal worms. What do I provide but wise?

[@markschack5668]

That is very common with cordon blues. I’ve never had success with them. I have heard of people who do but I don’t think there is a secret just got lucky with good parents.

[@NyteFryte]

Thank you, also I love your videos

[@mimk526]

I live in S Fl would you sell a breeding pair of strawberry finches?
