Cock Killed A Baby
Puting him with another hen,will not help.If he kills in the nest & puting another cock in with the hen with the chicks,might not be a good idea,I would just leave the hen to bring up the chicks.Just make sure she has a good supply of food.

Mother Budgie Lost All Use Of One Leg ?
It sounds like a stroke,if she broke a leg,that would`nt stop her from getting off the floor. If that is the case & it was a stroke.Budgie heaven,would be the best place for her. :angel1:

Incubator Help
Libby,If you are haveing a problem,with hens leaveing the nest.I would be looking for a problem in the nesting boxes,I would`nt have no more then 1 hen a season leave the eggs. If you go along the line of useing the incubator,you will need foster pairs to feed the chicks. A mate of mine brought a incubator to hatch chicks from his good pairs.But gave it away after 1 round,the chicks hatched,but he did`nt have enough fostes to feed the chicks,or the time to hand feed the number of chicks, If you have the time go for it.I would`nt even attempt to feed day old chicks. :feedbirds:

Baby Play
Ihope Splat removed it already.Things like that are dangerous,you can seehow the budgie is hanging by its foot.Just need another budgie to spin it around & 1 budgie foot tangled, budgie panicks, 1broken leg or worse.The other budgie get into the act & 1 dead budgie.
