The American Singer Canary (Serinus canaria), also known as the Yellow Variegated Canary is a popular song canary that is a cross between a Border canary (one-third) and a German roller canary (two-thirds). The resulting American singer canary possesses the best traits of both: the musical song of the roller and the sweet looks of the border. The combination makes it one of the most popular canaries in the United States. The Finch Farm offers beautiful yellow and red variegated canaries for sale.

Temperament: The Variegated or American Singer Canary is a favorite among bird owners because of its pleasant, outgoing personality and its beautiful singing. It was originally bred to be both musical and attractive, and it is prized for its song, which is louder, freer, and more varied than that of roller canary but softer than the border canary’s more choppy song. They are good-natured, social birds that are also active, lively, and hardy. Additionally, males can be territorial and should be kept separately. They like to bathe daily and should be given water to do so. Their environment should not be wet, cool, or drafty, and if they are given space to sunbathe, they should also have a shaded area to protect them from too much sun. Keep perches clean to avoid any foot problems. Buy Variegated Canary Online

DNA Testing
If there is no gender option listed for a bird on our website, that particular species is ‘monomorphic’, which means we’re unable to determine gender without purchasing DNA testing. DNA testing is an additional $149 per bird to guarantee preferred gender. DNA testing may add an additional 3-6 plus weeks to the estimated delivery time to allow for gender results. See our FAQs for more info.
