[COLOR=FF0000]Take some sort of corrective action before the second egg is laid maybe as early as tomorrow.[/COLOR]

Heading to do it right now. Gosh forbid they choose any number of the safer places I put up!

I hear you I built high and dry nest boxes with nest bowls and perches and I have 2 pairs nesting on the floor. Try not to change the nesting area too much.

Had a bittersweet moment today. One of my piggys laid her first egg today, but it rolled off the edge of their nesting ledge...

I'm sorry! She'll lay another one soon

Ok. All I did is put up cardboard boarders all around the nesting boards. Epic, who I think is the female, never even moved off the board and Storm, probably male, just paced back and forth on the board, periodically wing slapping me and trying to destroy my offending hands!! When I stepped back, they started rearranging their straw and getting more nesting materials out of the box I have in there filled with different things for them to choose from.

You will now stand an excellent chance of raising at least one squab. Hope the cardboard holds up. It should in a perfect world.

It's that double thick, shipping cardboard. Actually had to screw it in!
Is there anything, food/supplement wise that I should offer them. They've been getting a seed/nut mix. Has everything including peas, peanuts, shelled sunflower, millet and a bunch of other seeds. (They do not like the peanuts, except Chaos)

if four eggs are laid total (including the fallen one) then you've got two females probably. If they're a pair they'll lay just two total
