Hi everyone,
I have two gorgeous cockatiels that I bought in December 2015. A girl who is now about a year old and a boy who is about 2 and a half.
We bought them thinking they were both boys but that did not turn out to be the case haha.
Since December she has laid eggs 3 times with atleast 5 eggs in each lay.
Up until now none of the eggs have hatched until Sunday when one of them finally did The other eggs are not going to hatch but the chick is doing great and they are looking after it well. However, when I have came in today to check on the chick she has laid another egg in the box with the chick not even a week old.
I am really conscious because I know it is not good for her health to lay so much and they are only supposed to lay once or twice a year.
Does anyone have any ideas on how I might be able to get her to stop laying?
Thanks
Rob
