Guest jason Posted February 15, 2007 Report Posted February 15, 2007 I had 2 pair that did nowt but fight when I paired up, I put them together for about 2 hours per day until they got used to each other, weaned first young of them yesterday!! So if they do fight have a little patience. Jason
paul l Posted February 15, 2007 Author Report Posted February 15, 2007 how long should it b b 4 first egg is laid from time of pairing then
Guest jason Posted February 15, 2007 Report Posted February 15, 2007 if they pair straight away, anywhere between 5 and 15 days jason
paul l Posted February 15, 2007 Author Report Posted February 15, 2007 cool mate thanks will i know if they did or will they b doing anthing difrent then the norm
Guest jason Posted February 15, 2007 Report Posted February 15, 2007 usually the birds will not sit the eggs till the 2nd one is laid so you should see the first one laid, so don't worry if they don't sit the first one!. When the hen lays the 2nd egg then they'll take it in turns to sit them, in around 18 to 20 days they'll hatch if all is well, make sure to give them extra food when they are feeding young. Jason
paul l Posted February 15, 2007 Author Report Posted February 15, 2007 cool thanks jason for yur help
