Posted on March 10, 2011 by admin| 4 Comments

Has anyone ever tried any of these natural log nests, i have one but i think it may be a little bit crowded in there if my female decided to lay eggs in it .I have one of these natural log nests and a plastic nest box ,i have both of them up right now so my female can choose from them ,she is terrified of the plastic one , well not really terrified but she just wont go in it she will just go inside the natural one..She seems to be more interested in the natural one .so my question is could i move the chicks from the natural nest box to the plastic nest box once the chicks are born ?or will she abandon them.? here the pics of the natural nest box.(the birds i have are budgies)

I have 2 parakeets 1male 1 female. I have a nesting box on outside of cage, they ignore it . there’s a log for the birds the female has been digging in it for about a month now. She has been getting bigger in her bottom . Very possesive over the log when we come near the cage she gets in it. And the male is on top of the log protecting it. But for the last two days I’ve had to clean out the water bowl there’s been lots of big clumps that looks like poop brown w/ white in it. I’m talking marble size. She also been breathing really hard. Do you think she’s about to lay eggs or is something else wrong with her? Please help!!!
