Quick Question?

Post by Lauravdm » Thu Oct 21, 2010 11:13 am

Hey all
I have 2 pairs of Zebra's and I am collecting different mutations, I am getting a third next week, but my one pair are incubating their eggs and I am expecting them to hatch mid week, should I put off getting a new pair??

Sorry Laura, I don't recall how big the cage/aviary is. If it's huge you should be able to get away with adding them, but if it's smaller then you probably would want to delay disturbing the soon-to-be parents. :)

Its greatly depends on yourself if the third pair are really a rare mutation that you won't want to miss. And if you were to quarantine your new birds then i don't it will affect the incubating-pair.
