i put the nest-box outside there cage (had to cut some bars from cage) and its been there for about 3 months and my budgies wont enter it, nor will they get even close to it, what can i do so that they wont be scared of it, the female has layed an egg before on the cage floor but it broke, is there an alternative i can use instead of a nest box?? they are both 2yrs old, and i want them to have babies, but unless they enter the nest-box this will never happen, ive been reading a lot of articles on the web, and all say to use nest-box, any suggestion or websites?? the birds have been mating a lot lately, but they will just refuse to go in or close to there box
yes it has a whole for them to get in it, and its also clean, its brand new, this is the one im using http://www.petco.com/product/6183/PETCO-Parakeet-Nest-Box.aspx
yes they are both male and female, one has blur cere and other has brown cere, yes everything is correct on the nestbox, and i feed them diff foods, they are just really scared of the box, they have never approached it, not even by putting a millet spray, it does have a perch also the nestbox
