normal clutch size???

Post by chirpalot »

hey guys what is a normal clutch size for a pair of ringnecks? I have a pair of Latino Ringnecks that have hatched 7 babies the last 2 times they have bred.. 7 in each clutch. All babies are big beautiful and healthy. Of course I have to pull the oldest ones for handfeeding early so that the others will survive. Is it normal for a pair to have this many babies???

All my pairs had between 3-5 babies last season. 7 babies is a very large clutch but your Ringnecks seem to cope quite well. You definitely have a very good pair of birds
