Millet 4,497 Posted May 1, 2014 Author Report Share Posted May 1, 2014 I would do that bunnys if i had anything fertile to stick under her but i don't at the moment..i have put three nest pan's in so when they do build proper nest's and start to lay i maybe be able to stick the odd goldie or canary egg under them just so they can do what nature intended them to do and raise a few young.. .. i would hate to see them sit clutch after clutch and not rear anything.. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
