Hi all,
I would like some advice regarding my canaries.
Yesterday I had a hen sitting on a nest with 2 eggs and a baby. The father was feeding mum and all was well.
Today, there is an empty nest - no nesting on the floor, no broken eggs and no baby. A really clean nest.
Can anyone tell me what might have happened.I am finding it hard to believe that the other canaries would have committed the muder after all this time from the making of the nest, the eggs and the hatchling. Last year I had no such problem.
We do have mice but we also have a great mouser cat. No rats, no spiders in the aviary, nothing I can think of.
Thanks,
Di

OP13 years agoI doubt a lizard could have got into the aviary patchoo, it has a welded base and sits on 4 legs about 12 inches above the ground.
There was a very clean wire nest - no grass, nesting material etc. on the aviary floor. Very strange.
I am thinking about putting padlocks on the two doors.
