Question
hey...!
i have at least 20 pairs of budgies and from that only two have breed last month, it has been 4 months to me but they are not breeding i am giving them a good calciums, anti-bi-tics but they aren't , what should i do?

Answer
Rameez,

There could be an untold number of factors that are causing this. Like cage space, age of birds, the history of the birds, etc. I am going to assume that these 20 pair must have come from someone's collection? Not many people end up with 40 budgies and have never bred them.. If you know the history of these birds or where they come from, its possible to find out if they are confirmed to have bred before. Alot of times people sell off those kinds of birds to people that do not know.

Best of luck
