My fisher birds

My birds never mate

Hi Sizar,

It takes a lot of patience to breed birds. All you can do is provide what they need and feed them a nutritionally balanced diet, and then hope they will breed. It can take months for a pair to bond. Give them plenty of privacy and hopefully they will bond. If you check on them all the time, it makes them nervous and they won’t nest.

Thank you for asking Lafeber,

Brenda
