I am hand feeding 2 6 day old finches, I feed them watered down eggs, do they get enough water from that or should I also give them regular water?

You need to get these chicks to the vet ASAP! You probably have severely damaged them by feeding improper food, first bread and now eggs.
Get some handfeeding formula NOW. Follow the directions on feeding and temprature.
Call the vet and get them in ASAP, they will more than likely need special antibiotics to clear up any infection they got from being fed improperly.
I know you are trying to do the best thing for them, but you really need to do these things, otherwise they may die a very painful death.
And again, PLEASE don't breed your birds again unless you know what you are doing.

You should take them to the vet. They may contain harmful vacteria. also they may be sick and in need of medical lelp. Finally, the vet will give you a list on things to do and what to feed and what not.
Good luck with your new finches ;)

I personally have finches in an aviary. I would give them a little bowl of water not to deep so they wouldn't drown.
