What kind of finch do you have? I've bred Society Finches. If
you did not have a nest in the cage before the egg was laid,
then your finch most likely destroyed it. Some types of
finches are known for eating eggs. Kleenex is not a good idea-
pieces could get swallowed. I think the coconut shreddings
work the best.
