Your uncle must love tiels, just like us, to own them for 20 years! :D I hope his breeding plan goes well! :p

[allen]

i thought he would of bred them before now

[allen]

my uncle called me and asked a question he noticed today that when he goes near the cage if the male is in the box she goes right on in and if he checks then she does the attack thing he wondered if any of the eggs are starting to hatch i said i don,t think so as the due date is not till tuesday but i would ask

[allen]

ok if i,m right i was checking the nest box at my uncles and it was verry still no shaking at all but one of the eggs was moving so i,m guessing it is starting it,s process of hatching

[Sophia]

I hope they hatch successfully! :) It can take quite a while for them to actually get out of the shell! :p But I guess other members on here who have bred would know better about the hatching. :D

[allen]

yea my breeder is going to stay at his place on the weekend as we both are gone this weekend so any problems she can take action but she will have a good time there indoor pool spa and a games room.
