Riley and Aveline now have 3 eggs, and Mystery and Nelly have 4.
Extended the length of time that the lights in the bird room are set to "on". (To mimic the days getting longer.)
Added a CD playing water sounds. The purpose of this is to stimulate the birds into going into breeding condition. Two of the hens have been rearranging their nest box materials, but one has not even gone into her box yet. Added nest boxes to pairs 2,4, and 5.
Pairs 1 and 3 are not in breeding condition yet. Set up 5 pairs in breeding cages on Tuesday, Feb 8, 2011.
Plan to wait one week before adding the nest boxes. Kevin and Alaina will not receive their nest box until I'm sure Alaina is in proper breeding condition. |
