im not sure about everyone else, but breeding is well and truely underway in my indoor and outdoor aviaries.
ive had 1 pair together in a huge cage for almost 2 years now, never any problems until the last few days.
my hen has almost killed the cock she has always been with, it was just lucky that i heard him squark.
hes bleeding, and can barely move his legs. im waiting for my vet appointment.
just a reminder if you notice any far out agression, especially with breeding season here, think about keeping them separate like i stupidly did not :(
i didnt think anything bad would happen since theyve always been together. WRONG!
