Well, it is difficult you know...
Senegal parrots are ready to breed in diferent ages, from about 2,5 or 3 year, how old are your birds?
If your parrots play together, eat together, sleep, live, it doesn't mean that they will breed!!! Of all!
It is only start to find a pair. Second step- you have to make a breeding zone, where they will be in peace.  And breeding box, where female will lay eggs and incubate them. Many birds start their breeding season when they can get some special food, example nuts, seeds, and other ingridients.... |

Birds are about two to three years old. They have nest box. Hen looked swollen at back and stays in nest box for long periods. Cock feeds her regulary .Need information on how many eggs birds lay, how long is incubation period and what you feed birds while they're rearing young. Any help would be much appreciated. |

Hi again!
They lay 2-4 eggs, incubate them 22 days, chicks leave the nest after 2,5 -3 months. Feed your birds the same food you give now, but if hen and cock will leave their nest for a really long time (about hour) you should feed babies yourself... |
