Zebra finches are a common aviary bird, so surely some-one out there can
give specific info. on breeding techniques. My own experience relates to
a wild pair that raised several broods under the steel roof of our shed,
during HOT spring and summer weather. They entered through a small gap
on the outside and perched the nest on top of one of the steel wall
supports. Hope this helps.
