Yes zebra finches are great. They aren't really tame able if hand raised sometimes they might perch on your finger so if you looking for one to hold not reccommended
...the problems I had were mostly with the old trainer who is now fired (thank god) but like. It pays super well- the barn owner splits lesson fees 50/50 so with 2-4 kids in a lesson you make around $45 an hour.
but the whole place is a train wreck. pastures are run down, 30ish horses on 5 acres, not great footing, bargain bin lesson horses that are in generally not very good shape.
