help needed

[Guest tomo68]

Hi ive just lost 6 tumblers 5 of which have eggs, these eggs are due to hatch anytime now do you think that they would still be ok with just the one parent or am i going to loose them all.

Its aint looking good,normal practice means they will walk off the nest eventually,or its extremly unlikely they will rear them on their own,if they do hatch them. /Sorry /

[Guest tomo68]

im just hoping that given time they might start to come back but it doesnt look good does it

You have to ask them to order it in and they will keep it behind the counter as i do with my BHW and RP at the minute

[Guest tomo68]
