Oven-fry meatballs for a crisp texture and shorter cooking time. Heat the oven to 425 F. Heat about 1/2 inch of vegetable oil in an oven-safe, heavy-bottomed skillet over high heat until shimmering. Brown one side of the meatballs; then turn them in the pan using tongs.
In nature, finches eat a diet that mostly comprises seeds. This has led some keepers to believe that finches can thrive on just seeds, but such a limited diet is no more healthy for a finch than an all-cheese diet would be for a person.
Finches can be very dependent on seeds but ideally a finch should eat more pellets than seed. Spray millet should be available at all times and an egg food should be added to the diet. Fresh fruits and vegetables including carrots, lettuce, apples, oranges, and dandelion can be eaten by your bird.
