Re: Need Help. My bird wont lay eggs
Hi There
Ringnecks can mate up to 3 weeks before eggs with mating everyday.
But when she is close to laying most ringneck hens will sleep in there box about 3-4 days prior to first egg.

Have a look in the box and see if she has been rearranging the bedding. I noticed mine changes the pile up of shavings from one side to the other ect when she is getting ready.

Re: Need Help. My bird wont lay eggs
Well not my violet and blue pair that I am talking about. But my other blue and yellow pair. The hen will sit in the box like she is protecting something, But this is only when I go into the aviary. I havent seen that pair mate at all. She also has sruffed around and has taken about half of the shavings I put in ther out.
My violet pair. I see sometimes trought the window going in but, she hardly goes in. But She had been doing it with her partner for about 2 weeks.
