Re: Baby pipped externally, could it be stuck?
No, it didn't break free from the egg on its own. :? I had to give it help. Luckily, with the help of Google, I found some pics of a Cockatiel stuck in an egg & it looked exactly the same. The membranes had dried out & it was stuck to bubs skin, no way it would have survived. :( After more r...

Baby pipped externally, could it be stuck?
I checked nest box yesterday morning (almost 24hrs ago), and found the last egg had a small hole in it, and could see the little baby in there. I checked again last night and the hole was a little bit bigger, the egg was slightly broken just underneath the hole too, but the baby doesn't seem to have...

Thanks Fah. I think I understand. So these hens would be classed as a normal pallid? Am I correct in thinking, that these with a Lutino male, will produce 100% Pallid ino males and 100% Lutino girls and with a Blue male (no splits known) they will produce 100% green/blue pallid males and 100% green/...

Thanks guys Another check of the box today shows that she has at least 3 eggs. That's all that we could see, as she was still sitting in the box. She has been in there all day today. It looks as though she is doing the right thing. It seemed to take forever for her to lay eggs, I started to wonder i...

I'm being really patient!! I know it shouldn't be too long now. TD my hen is the same. She has been getting down so low she is almost falling off the perch. The male doesn't always show interest in her, but I know they have been 'at it' He also sits outside of the box while she is in there. Hope you...

Hen in nest box question
Hi, I have a pair of Alex's and the hen seems to be spending a lot of time in the nest box. She does come out, but if anyone goes near the aviary she goes straight back to the box. She has been doing this for a few weeks now. I'm worried that she is spending soooo much time in there, she will miss t...
