Hi all,

In another topic, i spoke about my new aviary, and have a quick question which i thought would be best asked in here.

I have 4 birds, both paired, however 2 are much more loving than the others - they just wont be seperated!

I moved them into their new home yesterday morning and everyone is happily investigating their new abode, except for one. Unfortunately she is the female of the totally in love pair and her "husband" is very keen to christen their new home. I have set up nesting boxes, but my question is.....because she is happy to just sit and let everyone else explore, will she know where the nesting boxes are if she needs them, or should i put her in one so she knows where they are.

I'm not trying to force her to breed (her hubby may be a different story though!), i just want to make sure she is okay if nature does take its course.

Thanks for all the help guys

PS Feathers, i hope you dont mind, but i "stole" some ideas from your aviary (the skipping rope and trellis) and they love it, thank you

I do believe they will know and will start investigating once she is ready to breed for sure.

In my experience its usually the males that find the nesting box first and then "show" them to the "wives"...nudge, nudge, wink, wink. They will be fine.
