I have a 12 year old African Grey called Billy who me and the previous owners have always thought was a male, but to my surprise on Thursday 'he' lay an egg!! So does this mean that Billy is actually female?? and is age 12 a little old to lay 'her' first egg?
It's been more than 48 hours since that egg so should I expect any more? Is a change in behaviour (really restless) and appetite (barely eating one day, ravenous the next) normal during this time and how long before it returns to normal? Should I do anything extra to help 'her' during this time? E.g extra calcium? leave any eggs in cage etc... I threw the first egg out because it had broke.
