We have two love birds. Samson and Delilah. I hope that someone out there knows something about breeding birds. This was not our "plan." I believed people when they said, "they will not breed unless they have a nesting box."
Well, you guessed it, we now have two eggs at the bottom of the cage. I put in a shallow bowl and some timothy hay and cotton in it. Then, placed the (then only) one egg in the bowl. Within the hour they had rolled it out. So, I am afraid to get them a nesting box. I don't have a clue what to do. :clueless: I am afraid that they will roll the little eggs out of the box and crush them.
Delilah has been very good sitting on the eggs. But, she has become VERY mean. We walk near the cage and she comes running up to us, chattering and pecking her beack on the bottom of the cage. She tries to bite me every time i give them food and water. I am afraid to change their cage. I need to but don't want her to bite me. I never realized how powerfull that little beak is.
I am afraid and don't know what to do. I have a feeling that there will be more eggs. Once the egg hatches I won't have a clue as to what to do. PLEASE HELP ME!!!
