Known as The Good Luck Bird, the Finch originates from Asia, but has since been introduced into many locations. In captivity, it is gregarious and long-lived. They are calm but intimidating due to their stature, they are approximately 5-6" from beak to tip of tail, making them suitable with the more assertive finches. They were considered pests to the rice fields, hence their name....we also have a deal on finches 2 for fifteen and finch with cage for 45.00
