  • I have a pair of Gouldian Finches who are nesting. It has been seven days since the first egg appeared, I think there are at least six eggs, maybe seven. The male is still intently bringing fibres to the nest and spending time in it. The female is incubating during the day according to plan, but she is still sleeping outside the nest at night. Their cage is inside and the temperature is around 20 degrees C. Should we wait and hope she settles her sleeping pattern soon? Will the eggs be killed by having daytime incubation and no incubation at nights?
