  • @AlcohollifuckincA not sometimes...most of the times :)

  • sooo sweet <3

  • this is just too cute :)

  • @TheGwynnSmith hmm, well i heard that you can cover them and not put so much light, smthn like that so it'll confuse them and make them think that it aint the breeding season, its kinda funny, but not sure if its actually true as i have never tried it.

  • @alali401 Yes I know they aren't fertilized without a male, and that part of the issue. If their eggs don't produce a baby then their body dosen't tell them to stop laying. I have read this, don't know how much is true. But I have also heard not to pet them down their backs, or feed them food from your mouth because thats what their mates do and it can bring on the egg laying and such :/

  • @TheGwynnSmith i searched and shit, and most of them said it is life threatening but you just gotta feed her like calcium food and such, oh and if the parrot had no male and it just laid an egg then the egg aint fertelized, meaning it wont hatch.

  • I have heard that if they lay eggs it can become a danger for them because calcium issues and what not. Is this true?
