My zebra finches successfully bred two little guys. Soon after they were out the nest, the mom escaped and the dad has since taken care of them. I know at a certain age you need to separate the babies from the parents. Both babies are males, so now there are three with the dad. Why must they be separated? Can you have more than one male in a cage? Sorry, I am new to this. I would appreciate input and kindness.
Thank you.

The only reason a person recommends moving the birds from one cage to another is when a female is added to the cage. This gives the couple a chance to mate and make more babies. Until you buy a female and add it to your cage there really is no need to move the birds around right now.
If they are getting along, you can leave them there. If you want to breed and bring a female in, the couple should have their own cage.
The birds will do fine on there own, they seem to be o k.
