It is chalky, ashen, dark ashen; short-billed; medium sized, small; agile, a hopper; a singer. It is a warbler, a talker. It is capable of domestication; it is teachable; it can be bred. It is a molting bird which turns yellow, turns brown. The completely ashen one is the hen, and the chili-red-headed one is the cock. They domesticate it. I domesticate it; I teach it. It sings, it sings constantly. It hops about, it hops about constantly. It is agile; it moves with agility. The quachichil is the same as the common house finch, but because it is chili-red-headed it is named quachichil. It becomes chili-red; its head becomes chili-red. Nochtotl is the same as the common house finch or quachichil. It is named nochtototl because the head is chili-red and its rump is bordered with chili-red; especially because its real food is tuna. It eats amaranth [seed], chia, ground maize, ground maize treated with lime.
