Good morning! Sorry I haven't been around all weekend.

If you remember my egg laying saga, Milly started laying eggs in January of this year. We decided to let her hatch one clutch, but every time, she abandoned them. I had gotten a nest and was doing all the right things. The last time she laid eggs (May, I think), I figured she'd abandon them again, but this time she didn't! That's when I improvised with the tupperware dish that didn't seem to bother her one bit!

I never candled mine, so I didn't know what were dealing with, but I knew there was a strong chance that they were fertile because Roger was with her so much.

A nest is probably the best idea, but like I said, a determined mom like Milly could have cared less. In fact, right this minute, she is sitting on an egg she laid yesterday! And it's on the bottom of the cage! We won't be having anymore babies at this house, although it was fun. Since we still have one of them living here, I definitely don't want to add any more. I don't have the space or the time. They were cared for in the most part by their parents, but I worried constantly about them, and had to really watch and make sure Milly and Roger got the right things to eat to keep those babies nourished.

Good luck!
Logan
