Gouldian Finch

"'The Gouldian finch is a colourful bird, native to Australia. They can survive in very warm climates, eating up to 35% of their bodyweight in seeds each day. Flocks can include between 1,000 to 2,000 birds!'"

Spawning
Gouldian finches spawn naturally in the overworld in groups of two to three. They can be found in warm, tropical biomes, such as jungles, savannahs and mesas.

Drops
When an adult Gouldian finch is killed, it drops:


 * 0-1 feathers.
 * 1 raw bird meat (1 cooked bird meat if killed while on fire).
 * 1-3 XP when killed by a player or tamed wolf.

Behaviour
Gouldian finches are able to fly and will flee when approached by a player. They do not take fall damage.

While in a loaded chunk, a Gouldian finch will lay a Gouldian finch egg every 5-10 minutes.

Breeding
If two adult Gouldian finches are fed wheat seeds, melon seeds, pumpkin seeds or beetroot seeds, a baby finch will spawn. The colour of the baby will depend on the parent; it has a 50% of being the same colour as its father, and a 50% chance of being the same as its mother.

Baby Gouldian finches can also be spawned by hatching a Gouldian finch egg. The colour of the baby will match its mother. An egg with a higher spawn rate will have a better chance of hatching successfully.
