Egg laying


My female bird is laying eggs without even having a nest (this the second time, she did this last year too) the male isnt bonded to her but they still yell whenever i seprate them and they breeded, i dont want eggs or her being hormonal, what should i do? Theres nothing like a nest in her cage, she just goes to the bottom and lays her eggs.


Answer:

Hi,

You should take the eggs away from her and move her cage, so that she doesn’t keep trying to nest.

Thanks you for asking Lafeber,

Brenda
