As I posted in the last note, since Mon is laying eggs anyway (3 as of this afternoon), I put in a nesting box. They won’t go near it, so I took off the roof for now to see if that sparks their curiosity.

While at the supermarket, in the pet corner, they didn’t seem to have bird nesting material, but they did have bunched up “timothy rolls” as rabbit foot. I Googled it on my iPhone there at the store and found references saying timothy hay works well for finch nesting material, so I bought a package, broke open the bunch and put it in. Maybe they’ll busy themselves making a nest. We all need hobbies, right?

The timothy hay smells really nice and fresh! And “made in the U.S.A.”.
