The best way to start would be to remove all obstacles. Such that a pair of cockatiels (male and female). After this introduction, the next step is the cage. The cage breeding standard 24 "x 24" x 18 "used with the nesting box with a rear access door on the front of the cage or outside the cage.
The nest is important, it can be of different sizes, we use a nest that is about 8 wide x 10 high x 12 deep, and I used the smallest andlarger. For couples who are looking for a box angled very nervous and often very deep painted black inside, or use a dark color. This covers the knots in the wood and other imperfections in the wood that may be watching the hen or the shadows, as if there was something else in his box next to their friend, or eggs and chicks. When I lived in Palm Beach, Loxahatchee, Florida I visited, where she graduated with a painted or unpainted nests (internal) and has been observed many times the birdswith boxes inside paintings were much more relaxed, and produces better if those verses, painted plywood. Of course, the color must be safe, we have found, and if the label says it is safe for children's furniture when it is dry it is definitely recommended.
Also note the location of the entrance hole (about 3 to 4 cm in diameter) to the nest should be in the case of packaging. So, do not allow children or egg drop. And 'even better for the inspection door on the back orSide towards the top box nest. Top ports because the birds to get more nervous because they can not be captured by the hole and without the mouse over them, and this often leads them to strip the eggs and babies, or even whipping around the box to hear, because you're afraid that inadvertently break the eggs and makes them for the damage or their own chicks. With a rear or side door inspection seem to get through the hole much easier, more comfortable and safe for everyone.Of course there are always exceptions, I have a few chickens that do not move for a while '(very affectionate) I'm going to actually reach and lift them to see their eggs or chicks, and then gently lay down again, and act as if nothing had happened. * Please note that on this first attempt, and keep the cards in birds, in order to learn more about the birds and even come to know what is what to do constantly. As in the case of the promotion of eggs and chicks or some will justChicks and eggs, or if at the same level and age of their eggs and chicks o. Encourage some couples to all, these are the things you need to keep track so if you might need to do to know which pair is to promote and not left to chance.
I have a few that are the exception to the rule, put a baby cockatiel or cockatoo in its nesting box and no matter what is on your own or do not have chicks to feed and maintain them. ILove that couple!
Another thing is that I am always warning my birds do not talk to them when I walk, and I bit on the box (I say the same thing every day in the inspection, and know that I know exactly what I am about to do ). I am looking for cases at the same time, every time you do not control and monitoring in a random fashion. They almost always feed at the same time every day to get some birds fed two or three times a day if you eat chickens. This makes the meal they feed their chicks fresh.Just because you food in the bowl, at the time, the need to verify, and not always have chicks, that's what they feed their chicks. Tools of feed, feed one type of food that things might not normally eat, often when you eat with the chickens, which usually does not other times. If there is a certain seed or food they have eaten up completely, but does not replace the rest of you eat anyway, or you can lose chicks. Because they felt it was inappropriate for the familysurvive. This is definitely not the torque of the power you can eat your plate before you add or replace what they are looking for. Chicks in the wild often allowed to die because of lack of food, if the parents can see, there is enough food to successfully all four babies will only raise the strongest clutch. It seems cruel, but this is the natural path, and the way it is better for one or two in order to survive, as if the parents are anxious tolittle food they could find, weakening all the chicks, all there for the chicks will not survive.
I feel time is very important to them and fed them at random is so unfair (you do not want to know when you eat, and how those that you forget until the next day)? If you want to be consistent and successful rearing are also producing. In nature, sometimes go for years without knowing breeding and production, because due to a lack of food notsuccessfully raise a family, so they do not.
Should be three inches or so on a beautiful pine wood shavings at the bottom of the box nest. Do not use cedar chips or cedar shavings because the oils in cedar scented, of course, and can burn small lung development. Stay away from chips, which are mixed by a mill that lead paint chips, metal fragments nicked by nails and also toxins from pressure-treated wood in these wood chips might have arrived.
The placement of the perchIt 'very important not to place the auction is not primarily with bowls for food or water, for reasons of hygiene. The perch should be sure not to lose and wobbly. Since cockatiels bred by the assembly, make sure there is enough space to do so. You can not always have to grow on the bar, but again, if you bind elected him. You would not want to lose a perch or unstable to be the cause of unfertilized eggs.
When you feed a couple is important to remember, if you wantThat's when you start a family, you must (not the case) an abundance of food successfully. In the wild cockatiels for a long time did not raise their young. Because of poor diet, Drouot or bad weather, do not stress this enough.
Many books recommend boiled eggs, finely chopped and offered to birds, the problem is, it may be rancid and reach toxic levels in the shortest possible time. We propose a corn bread with eggs in more, and ifHot substitute orange juice for milk time, which is much less likely to spoil. Some birds such as bread, just remember to remove and dispose of soft foods, though not all eat, and provide fresh air. The fresh water every day is very important and if the water bottles that change every day as well. Would you like to drink the water left sitting since yesterday, just because it looks clean? Those of us that chemistry and I tried with them or with microscopes can tell you that not even clearlook for water that is sitting on a warm summer, in particular, is not what it seems. Place under a scope and all the critters unfriendly in water (there were several hours) you waved back, every body's thirst? To change the water!
Cockatiels are seed eaters, but I found that I can be things that usually do not eat corn bread to steal, after mixing in the blender. A diet good seed, millet, wheat and things such as checks, travelers checks,Puffed wheat, etc., are all enjoyed by cockatiels. And I've never seen a cocker who did not like popcorn meet.
Some people like to prepare food, we do not. For starters, there is hygienic if you have more than one pair to have your spread of germs. And if you have a bird that is guaranteed is ill, many of your birds that transmit recycled food.
To start the pair of cockatiels, show interest in the nest, it is usually the male, the nest is the first harvest. He iscontrol and move the chips around to his liking, in the hope that it is an attractive place for his friend will be like. When you hear that he reaches this will start the hen, he sings, and how the chickens often seem unaware of his admirers, the Court is of course more effort. He sings in his face, he beat the count beaks in and make a shot out of the nest. If you show interest (which does not always happen right away) and we want to pair two or moreWeeks to lay an egg, provided that everything goes according to your taste. Remember, they can only with what we have given them, because it comforts of home, and sometimes feel they do not breed, because they lack something vital.
I always love to hear things like: Is there an established couple and I'm not getting any eggs or babies. At that time I usually see something like the lack of a good diet, no extras to think about having enough to eat, to raise a family or to stimulate the nest isbad or poor placement on the floor. What they do not, the birds can go out and take these things right for you, you must provide a suitable situation for them. I would rather spend more for a couple therefore necessary, then maybe forget something that might prevent them from registering.
Once the chicken begins to put her race in the box before their first egg, and if you do not drop every two days until she completed her clutch (a group of eggs, which is essentiallytheir union). The clutch is on average about 4 to 8 eggs, a chicken, but we have many to go far, and he shakes twice (by the first or second clutch after the first) a few chickens are just extraordinary.
A second pair that incubation begins with the first egg or wait for the second to reflect, and some even wait until you have placed all the clutch. So you can see where the incubation period can vary greatly, from 18 days ifit starts with the first egg to 24 days or more. Or even if the couple from the nest more frequently than most of this and extend the period of incubation. So not only up and throw out the eggs, at least the first candle. A lady called me recently for advice, he had his first pair of cockatiels lay eggs and they said they would not be good, so he did. I was terrified, I must admit that many times they do not, but this time there is some good to wait and see. AboutThe eggs hatched, and the women were good and the couple has a family inexperienced very nice! Sometimes you can expect the unexpected, sometimes it's a waiting game, things just take time.
The pair incubate the eggs there, probably, if everything is good to see the hen, the eggs sit, after she has laid her eggs at night, to sit where, as the male during the day. Sometimes they are even there, the eggs hatch and keep company. Each pairis individual and can do things how they vary, but all follow the same procedure, anything. In other words, we humans usually take our children aged 9 months and usually in a hospital, and this is completely normal. Use this guide as a reality check, because we have no experience with their baby in a taxi on the highway or on the way to hospital, or at least have a general idea that this could happen. As is the case of some birds to expect the unexpected and beprepared for everything as best you can.
