What can I do with all these Finch babies?

Our Finch laid eggs and we now have 3 baby finch ready to go to a new home. I have not been able to give them away, I am wondering what I can do with them. I don't want to do anything mean, so don't suggest it. Is it possible to take them to a pet store and give them to the pet store to sell.

    Yes. I'm assuming they are zebra finch. I'm sure a local pet store will take them. If you remove the nest and stop offering nesting material it should stop your finch from future mating.

    Sell them. See if the pet store will buy them. If people don't pay for their pets it is too easy to neglect them. Answer 2 is irresponsible

    I would keep trying to sell them. Sell them at $5-10 each on craigslist or put an ad in the newspaper. :)

    Pet stores most likely will not take them. They can't risk that your birds have a sickness and there is not proof other wise.

    Be careful about who you give them to, people can be awfully stupid sometimes.

    Good Luck!

    Teach them to speak human.

    Set them free, back into the wild and let them develop some natural instincts again . . .
