Cocktail bird Female not enter breeding box


Cocktail pair perfect mating in male enter breeding box but female not entering sometimes male female fighting but 8 days not entering female what problem


Answer:

Hi Vishnu,

Breeding birds take a lot of patience. Just because they are mating does not mean she will lay eggs soon or at all. It can take a while for them to settle into a nest box. Just wait and give them time. Once they do begin going in the box, then she is closer to laying eggs.

Thank you for asking Lafeber,

Brenda
