May 16, 200817 yr Looks like it to me, I would set her up in wherever you want to breed them and put a box in for them. I wouldn't worry about the 18 days that is nothing in reality.

May 16, 200817 yr That's all normal nesting behaviour. She is preparing the nest for laying and it's a positive sign she is going in there... As to the actual mating, it is often not seen or heard :nest:
