Hi Glenn
Nice for you to have some good numbers of Star Finches.
The juv in the photo is of a juv Chestnut-breasted Mannikin - legs are too 
dark, lores are are dark, tail is too short & brown to be a Star. 
A juv Star would show pale yelow-flesh coloured legs & feet, whitish lores, 
longer tail with some pink/reddish tones on upperside.
 
Cheers
