Questions

Raising Zebra FinchesI have introduced a young female in with my male after my male lost his female friend (they were only friends). My male and the new female seem to get along, but when the go to bed he sleeps on the nest and she sleeps on the ground. She was an aviary bird, but has taken to cage life just fine as she is young. My question is why does he sleep on the nest and she sleeps on the ground?

Zebra Finch Is Laying EggsI want to ask if it is normal that my zebra finch laid 2 eggs outside the nest and 3 inside it. I thought at first that maybe the ones outside the nest are infertile, but then I saw that she sat on them and she is sitting also on the ones inside of the nest. In this case should I put all the eggs together in the nest or she will reject them if I transfer the eggs?

Female Finch Not Sitting on EggsMy finch laid eggs. I only see the male sitting on them at night. Is that normal? I haven't seen the female sitting on them. This is her first time laying eggs. Is there anything I need to do?

My Zebra Finch Has Laid EggsMy white female zebra finch laid 3 eggs, 2 in the nest and one at the bottom of the cage. I haven't seen them lay on the eggs it's her first time. What should I do?

Female Finch Laid Eggs and Has DiedMy female passed and had eggs. Will another female foster the eggs? Also if I can not find another zebra female, will a society finch foster the eggs and will it get along with the male?

Zebra Finch Stopped Sitting on EggsMy finch laid eggs and was sitting on them and then they stop sitting on them. I don't know why or what I should do.
