Heres a bit of hope for you. I have attempted to breed one pair of Gouldians and they bred within 2weeks of being paired up. They sat on the eggs religiously, so much so that in order to carry out a nest inspection, I had to pull the nest OUT of the cage and shoo the mother out (that was after she bit me for sticking my finger in there). I only did this because it was their first clutch and usually they are infertile, otherwise i just leave them be.
Anyway they fed the chicks better than any other finch ive ever seen including zebs and the babies are big, fit and healthy and are almost feeding on their own now.
