Yeah she liked the palm cutting which surprised me cuz they're really sharp. But, I just picked up some rolls of chicken wire to wrap around the pen because bunnies are getting in there and eating their seed. So that works out well for the babies too (I'm counting my eggs before they hatch...

Well she has been sitting on the eggs since yesterday. The last time I saw the nest there was three eggs under her but she could have laid another. I'm so happy hopefully her eggs are fertile!!

Sunbaked, that must have been quite the show, how cute that would have been to see! Thank you for the encouragement! MinxFox, I know those stubborn birds. I'm so used to chickens laying in the same nest box that I figured the peas would too. Lol, thank you for the help, its been almost a year...

Ok, thank you MinxFox that's a relief. She has many good options to lay her egg but for some reason she choose there. So knowing that could potentially be a decoy egg is good. I'll let nature take its course. I'm just amazed she laid an egg because I just got her exactly a week ago.

I went out earlier and my hen was pacing back and fourth and the male has been displaying his tail all day long. I just checked on them and she laid an egg in the pen. Will she sit on it? I don't wanna take it from her because I don't have an incubator so that'd be pointless. Also, she laid...

If they did hatch some eggs you would most likely have to hand feed them. If you let the mother do it they would be skittish and you would have a hard time trying to find the babies a new home. Hand feeding baby parrots should not be taken lightly. They are very sensative to tempature and you...

Thanks, I knew rabbit manure would help the garden more I just didnt know why. I never knew it was considered a cold manure. So I'll be able to grow lettuce, spinach, tomatoes, and onions? Thats wierd that you mentioned it because those were at the top of my grow list Yes, I am towards Lake...

Congrats! I remeber when I got my first birds ever they were zebra finches and they laid a clutch a 8 eggs. It was the most exciting thing to watch and how the babies grew. Good luck!

Hello all! We just recently moved to the Nevada dessert and it is finally cooling off to where I think I am gonna try a garden. I am in the process of building 4x8 raised beds. I am only building two due to the fact we live in the dessert. My plan is to build heavy duty tractor type of cages...

ladybirdb12 said it perfectly. Parrots are very smart animals and they need time, love, and care. They are great companions! I have two Double Yellow Headed Amazons and my male (Kahuna) is such a sweetheart yet such a smart A. Literally I swear he mocks me and allot of the time he laughs at me...

Bobwhite quail would do really good. Before we moved I had them in a pen and we got over a foot of snow and they would still lay eggs every now and then. They had a shelter that was always dry. I also had 4 pairs of piegons and they were fine in the ice cold temps.... I just gave them lots of...

Kahuna loves his bathes :) Jasper loves the view :)

Oh what a sweetie My amazon, Kahuna does that too so I will pet him then after wards he will chew on my finger

Oh congrats, he is beautiful. I held one once and it was the nicest bird ever. I dont know what it is about cockatoos but they are all loving.

Hello all. I have a Yellow Birds of Paradise tree outside my house that would be perfect for my parrots it looks like the kind you buy. It has tons of horizontal perched all across it. I want to cut it down and make it a tree stand. My problem is I can't find if Yellow Bird of Paradise tree is...
