Hi Dee,
They are sharing their new home with a pair of Owls. So far so good tho they are still new ot each other. The Owls made a bee-line for the nest basket and are now fast asleep in it! They aren't 100% settled yet but I'm hoping they will all get on famously. I had a wee panic attack as the new cage is next to the cage where my goulds are sitting on eggs and I had to move ot slightly to slide the new cage in the gap. I opened the door to the nearby cupboard and whacked the nest box as I forgot I had moved the cage and scared the hen off the nest. Luckily she has gone back in so hopefully I havent lost anything :( . I felt really bad so keeping fingers crossed that everything will be alright!

Hatch date is 24th May so have got everything crossed now! Both Mum and Dad Goulds are sharing the sitting really well so I'm hopeful assuming that they are fertile.
