ST> Sorry it took so long for me to reply...but April I spent most of the
ST> month with my Aunt in the hospital....she passed away on the 22nd...
I'm sorry to hear about your aunt.
ST> My lovebird has laid two clutches of 5 eggs each and they haven't
ST> hatched....she is starting over again...and I'm worried...don't know
ST> what is happening...she has only had three babies....so I think she
ST> knows what she is doing...any suggestions???
Make sure she has TONS of calcium, and if the next clutch is clear, take
down the nestbox after the eggs are overdue to hatch. Don't let her get
a chance to start yet another clutch. You may need to start covering her
cage with a heavy black cloth so she only gets 8 hours of light per day.
Lovebirds are often hard to stop once they get started.
