Ringneck Parrot

My Indian Ringneck Parrots "Nippet" (Albino) & "Nelly" (Pastel Blue) have bonded well. Nelly also sat all through August on her
first clutch. Out of her three eggs, I found one dead chick and the others eggs were broken with no signs of any further chicks. She
seemed like a tentative mother only coming out occasionally to feed. Nippet also joined her in the box a couple of times I witnessed.

They usually only have one clutch per year so I maybe waiting until next year for more results. Normal incubation is 21 to 24 days for ringnecks.
