In Reply to: Re: breeding parakeets in my home posted by Timothy Henderson on July 23, 2005 at 13:07:14:
: : I am trying to breed two pairs of parakeets (they each have their own cage). I originally had them in our living room, but with no success. I moved them into my bedroom (which is right near my living room) I try to keep the door closed so there isn't alot of noise but they still have not laid any eggs. Am I doing something wrong? How do I get them to breed? Does the noise matter? Any help will be greatly appreciated. : Do you have a nest box installed? Parakeets rarely breed without a nest box. Hi Timothy, Thanks for responding to my ad. Yes we do have the nest box installed but still we don't have any eggs. I have several pairs now because I was reading that you should have at least 4 pairs for successfull breeding, but we still haven't had any luck. We have also built an avairy outside to house them in. They have been in there for about 3 weeks. I am hoping in the near future we will have some babies. Any other suggestions? : In the wild, Keets live in large flocks. It's often difficult to get one pair of birds to go to nest. A separate cage with another pair of birds will encourage both to breed.
