Usually she will sit after the 3rd egg. Most will lay at least 3 to 5,6 eggs.

If they do not seem to like the other pair or other hen interfering you may need to consider single pair/cage breeding. See how it goes, some do well with colony breeding.

Cindy I missed this post somehow. They are so adorable, but the owls looks so small next to them. Do they all get along?

Donna, they do get along well. One older male usually has a few all cuddled up next to him. The sleep and eat side by side. When I feed the owls come down first and then the bourkes either join them or eat later, depends on what is served.

Those are roosting spots for owl finches.
