Here we go again!!!

I don't think we will have any babies this time around, which is ok by me. They are still sitting on them, but the first should have hatched a week ago. Of course, she layed eggs for two weeks, so some might still be viable, but I sort of doubt it at this point. I just feel badly for Roger and Milly who have worked so hard, sitting on those eggs.

I feel baby for Roger and Millie, but not for you! J/K. I know that babies are a lot of work and worry.

[Logan]

The eggs have been abandoned for more than 24 hours. I'm pulling the box tonight. I don't think these eggs were fertilzed at all as I have not caught Roger and Milly mating in recent months. It is for the best. I'm sorry for those of you who might have been able to adopt one of our babies, but I'm glad I'm not having to worry about 7 babies and having to handfeed.

i'm glad everything worked out.

This morning, I noticed that Milly was tearing up the paper in the bottom of the cage, and sure enough, when I came home a few minutes ago, there is a single egg lying on the bottom of the cage.

Jeez Milly! She really wants to be a mommy again!

[Logan]

I think she does, Diana. I'm going to go, this afternoon, and buy a shade for that room so that we can darken it earlier in the evening and as much as I hate to do it, I think I am also going to put Roger in a different cage for a while, to see if it slows her down some. I might even resort to covering her cage at night. This can't be good for her little body to be producing so many eggs.

Its nice that you might want some baby birds around but...

When a bird keeps laying eggs its actualy can put stress on them because they keep wanting babies and it can actualy reduce its life span.

It could even cause problems if its not layed right one time it has happned to many people and a few days ago it even happned to a girls pet lovebird it layed one egg wrong and it cracked inside the bird giving it bloody poops and sadley it passed away.

The best thing to do is dont take away the eggs but instead boil them so they dont go bad or put dummy eggs in the nest because it seems the more eggs you take away the more eggs she shall lay and sadly reduce her life span.

If you realy want to breed them you also have to know how to tube feed them excacly or it can lead to a fast death for the babies or you can also learn to spoon feed.

Does your bird know how to take care of babies?

If they hatch shall you know how to feed them and do you have a heater?

If yes Im shur they shall get homes from what I read and hopefuly it shall all go well.
