hi missi
with zebras nests are not always copulsary as they will mate regardless of nest or not!i think they are pretty much like humans in that respect :lol:

lol True, I just thought it was kind of funny! First time I've ever seen it and kind of couldn't believe my eyes.

Well maybe she'll lay them while she's on a perch and they'll fall to the ground as this is what happened to one of my newer females the day after we brought her home.

Otherwise...perhaps I'll have chicks in a food dish! :roll:

Kenny, I love it! I had a cage with a pair of goulds on a table, and a friend told me they'd never mate while on a table. "Would YOU mate on a table?" she asked me. Well, looking back...... :wink:

I'll have to chime in on that as well :wink:

Anyhow, well yesterday I found a bird shop who would take my babies, so the pairs are in divided cages and have nests now. They seem MUCH more happier than being in the large community cage.
