I'm sorry about your finches. The only way you'll know for sure what
happened is to have a necropsy done; speak with your avian vet. Also,
were you using teflon in the house or an air cleaner?

Again, I'm sorry for your loss.

We use teflon, in another oom. We never use air cleaner.

I will take them into a vet.

How many finches did you have die?

How old is your oven? Does it have any PTFE? If not, once you finish the
*INITIAL* self-clean cycle, the factory oils are history.
