Posted September 20, 200816 yr okay so I am a little 1. amused & 2. shocked at this. I have 2 hens down - and 20 eggs YES BUDGIES EGGS I had 3 down and well i had to foster her 2 eggs out. But Angle and my DF Dom pied were sitting on 9 eggs each - That is the highest amount of egg I have ever had WOOOO okay so they are now sitting 4 and 5 eggs - 9 were inferile ( or to young to tell) But either way I was not letting them raise more than i know they are capable of ( they both struggled with 5 babies their last round ( a few months back) Now I am not sure how this happen yes maybe cause it is there 2nd round, maybe because they had a HUGE break between clutches, maybe because I added the nest box and then let them be? There are too many changes that i made with these 2 but either way I am happy with the results I am looking forward to 2 either Yellows or greens maybe a Albino or a violet ) these are mybirds eggs Angels is a YF opalin Mauve and she is paired to a Mauve Normal DF is paird to a violet normal so would like to see the results If i have worked out my outcomes correctly i should have VIOLETS ALL ROUND! apart from the 2 fostered :D Edited September 20, 200816 yr by Neat
