Jan 16, 2021 · The dummy eggs are pretty dang good looking and the weight is right (assuming you get the right kind for your species). I would do the swap when the bird is in another room and do it right before bed so she wakes up with the new …

Apr 19, 2023 · I’ve never had a bird lay eggs but as far as I know most eggs from small parrots incubate for 3 weeks. Once she looses interest in them completely it is safe to remove them.

Apr 18, 2014 · These pairs lay eggs frequently - in fact, sometimes BOTH females will lay eggs, in opposite corners of the cage, and take turns sitting on each other's (infertile) eggs.
