Judy,
I have 2 society finches, and 3 star finches. Love them! The male star has a nice chirping short song. My societies are both female, only the male sings, sadly I have 2 females, so they are pretty quiet.

I have a flight cage with plenty of room for all five of them. They get along well together... in fact the female star lays a lot of eggs, but will not sit on them. The societies took over the care of her eggs a few months ago and hatched out a baby star! That was exciting.

I prefer the canary song over the finches, but canaries can be pricey, and I love the look of the finches. Plus canaries have to be alone to sing, and I wanted more than one bird in my cage.

You will love the sound of a canary singing. My grandmother always had canaries, and waking up to their sweet song is so soothing.
