Blue Cap Cordon Blue breeding
I have recently acquired Blue Cap Cordon Blues, two hens and a male. The male was a single bird and I was lucky enough to find two hens. Two have paired up and seem interested in building a nest. What are the favorite nesting supplies and food for BCCBs?

Re: Blue Cap Cordon Blue breeding
Our pair of BCCB's like the large wicker baskets for nesting and coco fiber for the nesting material. For food they like a good quality finch seed, mini-meal worms for live food, dried insect food, sprouted seed, and spray millet. They love to take baths daily.
