Nate Hollings was a new faculty member at Great Eastern University, and he used zebra finches in his research. The school's animal facility staff had never before worked with zebra finches, but they met with Hollings and discussed husbandry, medical issues, short and long range plans, people to contact to learn more about zebra finch care, and so forth. All went well. The birds bred, offspring were healthy, and when new breeding stock was needed, the animals were purchased from a commercial pet bird breeder.
