I haven't tried a mirror or anything like that as she is still semi wild and I thought it would probably make things worse. Do you think I should go ahead and try a mirror anyway. There really isn't another room to stick her in as I live in an apartment and have limited space. As far as where she is...

Constant "Contact Call"
I recently got a female ringneck and things have been going pretty well with her. However, she is constantly yelling and doing her contact call. I have owned many ringnecks in the past and also used to breed and hand raise ringneck, but never had one that would do the contact call so much. She will ...

The person I got this hen from is a breeder of only IRN's and has tons and tons of pairs - she breeds them year round and not seasonal, so they must be climate controlled - they were matting right before the hen was sent to me, however the breeder doesn't think anything will happen as the male is st...

Aggressive Hen?
Right now I have an aggressive hen - she was not this way before and all of a sudden started being really aggressive to her mate. Here is the story - she is a new addition and she has been getting along with her mate very well with no problems. I got her from a breeder that is down sizing her flock ...

Thanks for the input - I actually am not expecting or really wanting this pair to breed for some time. The male is still young and they are new to each other, so right now I wanted to try and get them used to each other, but the male isn't very happy about that. They aren't set up for breeding or an...

Pairing suggestions?
I just got a proven hen - she is a beautiful blue lacewing and said to be a very good mother. What would be the best male to pair her with? She is currently paired with my 2 years old single male, however he doesnt seem to like her very much, so I am thinking of getting her a different mate. Any sug...

Nest Box question
I recently got a pair of bonded breeders - they are a young and unproven pair. I have been looking around trying to find a nest box, however the largest I can find are a cockatiel size which is 12x12x12, my guess is that would be to small, is that correct? I am probably going to have to build my own...
