This type of finch is another very interesting type of finch that is around 12.7 centimeters tall and 11.43 centimeters in length. They are also considered one of the most colorful among finches and are quite popular and common in the pet bird trade as well.
The Star finch's face is red including its beak - the female Star finch's face isn't as red compared to the male Star finch. Its neck, throat, and flanks are white but spotted. Their back, wings, some parts of the tail, and breast is either gray green or a pale olive green. Its legs are a light brown or yellowish color and its abdomen is also yellow. Its eyes are dark brown or red olive or somewhere in between. As with other types of finches, the mature male Star finch is more vivid in color while the female finch is a bit duller.
These birds are a bit strange when it comes to the treatment of their young. They throw their younglings out of their nests when they refuse to eat the food they got for them. They tend not to land on the ground when feeding too; instead they prefer to grasp onto the grasses' seed heads.
They feed on grass seeds particularly the ripe ones however they eat half-ripe too, white ants, and fruit culture flies. During breeding, though, they prefer plain seeds, a variety of insects, and some greens. As pets, they will eat chopped hard boiled eggs (just like the other finches), soaked seed, spray millet, mature legumes, cooked rice, some fresh fruits such as oranges, grapes and apple, some grated cheese, dark greens, and canary seed that is fortified and fresh.
The males are particularly territorial come breeding season. The male Star finch has a very beautiful and cheerful song, considered to be more cheerful and pleasant than that of the Green Singing Finch. As with most of the finch specie, the males do a song and dance routine during courtship. Their method of wooing the female Star Finch is so unique because during its performance, the male Star Finch holds a stalk of grass stem in its bill.
They also tend to do a lot of bobbing and sit very close to the female just to peer at her face. They also ruff up their feathers, particularly on their head, breast, and flank to appear tall, and tend to twist their tails toward the female Star finch. Like most finches, both male and female Star finch take turns in incubating their eggs which takes about 14 days. The younglings reach their sexual maturity at 12 months after they are hatched. Around 35 to 40 days after hatching, the young Star finches fully become independent.
