Posted June 2, 200817 yr My breeding pair Lumina and George Jr have been together for almost a year now. I know it sounds like I'm being pushy but I'm just confused one week they looked like they were gonna raise a family but now she's not interested and her cere is half white/powdery blue and half brown crusty and they still feed and clean each other. Now I look at it she seems more interested in my other male Bailey and I've tried putting a bourd up and my mom tells me off and if I put him in a different room but she shouts a me. So I thought maybe to put Bailey with Lumina but then it would be unfair on George. So I hope you guys can help. Thank you. Jodie.
June 2, 200817 yr If you specifically want them to breed then I wold put them in another room where they can't see the other male since i sounds like he is distracting her. If you don't mind which of them breeds you could put all three together for a couple of weeks without a nest box, see who bonds and then take the other cock out and put the nest box back or try your hen with the other male on thier own. Since it sounds like you only have the three it doesn't really matter which way you do it you will end up with a boy on it's own.

I have a sky voilet pied female still in quarantine she has 2 more weeks left but she s being wormed.
June 2, 200817 yr Well if your current female is getting nowhere with that boy why not put her with the other boy and then when your new female comes out of quarantine she could go in with mr lonely heart.

June 2, 200817 yr I don't see why you would need to wait to move the female. Either way there will be a boy on it's own for two weeks until she is quarantined so go ahead and move her now.
