AUSTRALIAN FINCHES
Can best be divided into three groups with different degrees of difficulty in keeping and breeding.
It is wisest to start with the birds from the easiest group, when these have been bred, purchases of the more difficult birds can be paid for from the sale or exchange of young birds.
Firstly bird keeping cost money, but it does not have to keep you poor as long as you can feed your birds when you breed them you can either sell the young to purchase other species or you may find some people might exchange young to bring in new blood lines to their stock birds.
