Although they are technically passerines, canaries tend to be managed uniquely, so here is a forum just for them!

The weather got a lot hotter than usual which was really annoying for my canary eggs!
Was the heat the problem in both cases? How hot did it get?

It was about 30 degrees which is unusual here. No the first case was because the canaries built a terrible nest so the babies all fell out... A two metre drop poor things.. I now use a small box with no roof and high sides and I think that works well although I wouldn't know for sure because that was when my eggs cooked

Canary babies die very easily from heat...
Almost need a fan in the nest... LOL
