Mon took a little food and water break and we can see she’s up to 5 eggs now. What percent of the time do viable eggs need to be kept warm? I still think these are not fertilized though. doug

5 eggs and counting — 3 Comments
Doug, Five eggs must be some kind of record. We kept canaries for years and never had any of the females lay more than 2 to sit on and hatch. Is Mon sitting on all 5 to be hatched? You might be surprised what goes on while you are sleeping. ‘dave
Mon is sitting on them most of the day. She is out of the cage to play a little now. But yes, she is somehow sitting on all 5 almost the entire day.Dennis told me that the fertilization can take as little as 3 seconds!doug
If the eggs are not fertilized Mon will be disappointed. You will have to cheer her up
