my chickens are 27 weeks old and still no eggs!!! Why?

Posted on February 5, 2012 by admin| 2 Comments

I have 3 Plymouth Rock buff Bantams. They are 27 weeks old or there abouts. Not one single egg as yet!
I have a Bantie Rooster with them, feed them layers pellets, fresh water, clean housing, nest boxes, plenty of outdoor space, option to be in or outside anytime of day. Plenty of sunshine (Yes really, sun in England in April!)
Oh they also have grit should they need it. They are all very
healthy clean lovely birds but I just can’t wait for the little eggs!
Is this unusual?
Please someone tell me it will be any day soon!
Thanks

I have had my budgie Sammi for about 3 years and our neighbors just moved and gave us their bird Coco. Sammi is the female and Coco is the male he is about the same age. I have a nice big cage lots of toys and they love the bottom of the cage filled with the bedding you use for hamsters. I don’t really want to put a nest box in there. I just caught them mating and was wondering if she will lay her eggs without a nest box.

Help!!! i have a nest freshly build, under my deck. i hate to touch it really but is on top of my Jacuzzi .?

Posted on February 4, 2012 by admin| 4 Comments

the nest is empty at this time, and would like to keep it under the deck for the sake of the hardworking mother bird and her future chicks, but under my Jacuzzi i can’t have it, so im thinking of moving it 3 feet away, same height. The new under the deck don’t have same support plank as where the nest is, if i place a box and make wide hole would it work? guess it would have to be weatherproof maybe wooded box? i need to know what to do before she give birth, any suggestion will help!

Found a baby bird tonight Please Help!?

Posted on February 3, 2012 by admin| 6 Comments

My dog was barking outside and would not stop! I went outside to look and it was a baby bird! Me and my mom put him in a box. He can’t fly yet but has feathers and hops around trying to fly. Soon he fell asleep in the box. My step-dad is going to be home soon and we are going to put him back in the nest. Do you think his mom may have left him? What things should we give him to keep him alive for a couple more hours?
