Hi all
Can anybody shed any light on why my kak has thrown all wood chips out of the nest box and laid her eggs on the floor of the nest box is this the norm she is incubating them so hopefully should be ok.
Cheers

Many yrs ago we used rather small, shallow, nesting boxes, and they thru everything out...laid and not sucessful.
Some yrs later we set up a CCTV camera in a nesting box, coving before mating thru to hatching etc...motion recording.
Before laying the females spends a lot of time house keeping, throwing nesting material around, over her head, often coming across bits...most bits, for some reason dosnt seem to like, throws them up and then chomps then to shape.
How deep are your nesting boxes? _________________ My Spelling is Not Incorrect...It's 'Creative'
