So I have two pairs of Lessons, and the older pair gave me no less than 3 cluctes last year. Never really big, normaly there where 6 eggs but only 3 hatched. Overall I was happy with the result, and even tho both are normal gree, they gave both blue and fallow kids.
Anyways, this year they have messed up twice, first time there was not a single fertile egg. So I removed them, and some weeks ago they laid 5 new eggs. I noticed today that the hen was spedning all the time outside, so I checked the eggs. All of them where stone cold, and only 1 had a chick inside.
I cant really undestand whats wrong... For the last clutch last year I actually hosted them all in one big aviary, but have since moved them away to a neighbooring aviary. I do see they tend to sing, or yell, alot at eachother hanging face to face in the wiering. I wonder if this has disturped things, or if theres some other odd reason to why they cant seem to get it right this year. Any advice?
