Re: Really dispointed
Hi
Firstly try a different nest material and put the nest in different place.
Ringnecks sometimes dont like a particular nest material but i use wood shaving.
Now the position,i have seen ringnecks do this but other species they have had a box and laid of the perch and another exact same box was put in but in different place and she went striaght in and laid in there with no problems.
Hope this helps
