Zebra finch babies almost out of the nest

Zebra finch babies. These 4 belong to Jasper and Alice. Jasper is the grey/white male on the perch to the right of the basket and Alice is the female on top of the basket. These babies are almost as big as their parents. They are ready to come out of the nest but are a bit scared.

ok so i just got some finches and i wanted to know how long intill the baby finches will hatch if you know cause i dont know if the eggs r good or not

I just saw your comment. Sorry for taking so long to respond. Once you see the eggs, the incubation period is around 18 days (give or take a few). When they have been incubating for 10-14 days, you can take them and hold a bright light behind them to see a shadow of what's inside. If you see nothing other than the yolk, you can dispose of them.

If you guys pause it at 0:46 the chick looks shocked. xD Lovely video by the way, it's great to see a good quality clip of the chicks a few days before their fledging period. :)

do you know how long baby finches have to stay with their parents because I'm adopting one from a friend of mine and I was wondering how long until I could take him or her home (it didnt hatch yet so we dont know the gender)
