I have waited a year to breed my birds, after having lost 3 hens I chose to breed Sunflower and cloud separately in breeding cabinets. Cloud and Rainbow have been successful in laying 6 eggs and Cloud is sitting nicely.
Sunflower however keeps breaking her eggs. She is very clumsy but it's not just her. Jungle thinks he's helping and takes the egg from under sunflower and tries to sit on it himself. Should I remove him from the cabinet? They are both so desperate to be parents, yet with all the breakages it's just not happening and it's so heartbreaking.
Any advice on this one could you email it direct please. Being a night shifter I usually only check emails on saturday's and don't spend a lot of time on the net. Much appreciated.

I should point out the three birds I lost were Skylark, Meadow and Queen(not pictured on web page). I have since got some new birds which I will add to the site as soon as I get some spare time. I should also say I was previously registered on this site as Daffy, but had trouble with login details and password so re-registered.
Cheers Guys
