This is the first year for me at breeding Indian Ringnecks and I dont know all the facts about how to keep them alive. Can someone please give me some information on them like: How long it takes them to hatch
Temperature they need to have them at
What the babies and parents need to eat

It takes about 24 days for the eggs to hactch.
Not sure on the temperature, they will breed through spring so the tempoerature is nice and warm for the babies. I handraise my Ringnecks without using a brooder because it is warm enough.
When parents have babies, feed them lots of fresh fruit and veg twice a day. Also give them a good seed mix or pellets once a day.
