ok i just checked my kaks nest box and to my surprise we have our 1st egg i new it was close as houdini has been feeding beth and i noticed she was butt heavy out of this clutch i,m keeping 1 male back for olive i will name him popeye now acording to my research kaks can lay anywhere from 6-9 eggs sometimes more sometimes less i am so excited i was just talking to lori who i got the kaks from less the 1 hour ago and at that time there was no egg and asked her when it would be laid as they been mating for like 18 days so i was just a little to anxious

i,m sad to say that beth droped her 2nd egg on the bottom of the cage the egg did not make it

well today i noticed something very bad with beth . she never lets you touch her she is not tame at all. so when she let me do this i was surprised . then i noticed she could not fly at all . i started to worry then i noticed she was egg bound .so i put her in some luke warm water for 15 minutes . after this she went right to the nest box and droped the egg . even though i had a cuttle bone in the cage . soi boiled 2 eggs and gave them some . she has been devouring it constantly she now stays in the nest box she only comes out to eat and drink

 

[Jenny]

Oh no! I'm so happy she was able to pass the egg! Poor dear - I hope she does alright with the rest

 

[allen]

i,m going to keep a very close eye on her

I'm so happy your care did the trick and she was able to lay the egg.
