Hello everyone,
I have been wondering how difficult it is to breed jardine parrots. I have bred cockatiels before, but I have always thought of them as generally easy birds to breed. So here are my questions.
-Noise level
How loud are they? I have heard that jardine's and pois in general are quiet, but I also know that some birds get really loud during breeding season.
-Mate aggression
Are jardine's typically mate aggressive? If so are there ways to prevent injuries? Also I have seen a pair for sale and the female had a plucked head, but was not completely bald, she still has down on her head.
-Clutch size and Hatch rates
What are their average hatch rates and clutch sizes? Are their ways to increase hatch rates?
-Breeding season
When is their breeding season?
-Handfeeding
I have handfed cockatiels and would plan on handfeeding the baby jardine's. Is their anything different between handfeeding jardine's and cockatiels?
-Miscellaneous
Do they have any quirks I might have missed or should know about?
Thank you in advance. I have always been interested in jardine's, and love handfeeding baby birds.
