Chapter 3

See links to chapters 1 and 2 at bottom of story.

One type of finch in the finch world is so friendly that they are called Society Finches. Because of their nature, they need to be kept in a group to interact with the other finches.

Often Society Finches are busy-bodies and want to interrupt those in the community who enjoy more privacy, mainly when they are breeding. Not considered aggressive behavior on their part, just their nature.

They make great additions to your pet family because of their social activity and behavior and are fun to watch. They are friendly, have an excellent easy-going temperament, are easy to take care of, and usually not very expensive to buy.

While people are not sure of this finch’s origin, it is usually thought to be about 300 years ago and often documented that breeders from China and Japan started this finch line.

They are usually pure white, fawn, white, or chocolate and white, and when full-grown, most range from four and 1/4 to four and 3/4 inches long. Each one of this finch family is unique in its appearance. Occasionally you will find tri-colored finches, crested finches, and solid-colored finches all within the Society Finch family…
