Ok, this is it. I have eggs in both nests, the PB'st are 2 days ahead of the yellow and the lilac. So one has 2 and the yellow has one egg. I have Inchy set up with a nest now and will give him a few eggs when I see the others start to sit.

I hope it all works out this time. I got the lighting right, the eggfood and the water. Keeping it all simple. So am hoping for the best. Have the pipettes on order and hope I wont need them.

Budgies are breeding but still no eggs, has been 10 days since the first mating, so hopefully any day now.

Awesome, silver blue??? Is one silver and one blue? And what will they produce visually?

Ok, Pass, tell me in detail everything you do when they hatch. What u feed the parents, how often u check the boxes/nest, and again what exactly u feed the bubs and how many times a day and how long for your supplementation :) I want to give my bubs EVERY chance and survival this time.

Ok Pass, I dont like the look of the yellow hen now. Late yesterday she seemed less active and slightly fluffed. Worried about egg binding, HOW the hell, I dont know, she has tons of grit/shell and I give her eggs and egg shell daily and she eats them. Anyway. This morning she seemed fluffed so I gave her sugar water in the beak and put a heat lamp at the top of one end of the cage. Hopefully this gives her the strength she needs to go ahead and continue laying without further worry.
