Second clutch and eggs on one end have like a solid white circle and the rest more translucent color. Any ideas why? Didn't notice the first clutch appearing this way.
Also, the gouldians have been going and disturbing a gold-breasted nest with newly laid clutch. Why??

Dbearden I’ve seen the solid white circle on mine and was wondering if maybe it’s calcium deficiency but I changed my mind because I give a lot of egg and egg shell

Thank, for commenting. I also give egg shell in the diet as well as boiled egg daily so hopefully it is an air pocket.
