Hello all, I posted in the "introductions", and it was suggested I post here.
Anyway, this is Kiko:
"Chiminena" is the female, but I do not have a photo of her ,at the moment.
I mentioned that she layed her first eggs, but "Kiko", the one in the photo, ate the eggs,.
There is no doupt, no mice,ect can get in, but my wife says she caught him red handed, he was just finishing ,when she saw it,..she showed me what was left of the shell,..
They did not yet have any kind of nest, so the egg was on the floor of the cage, Now , I have made a nesting box, and they have it in the cage, my hopes are if she uses the "nest", maybe Kiko won't eat any more eggs, Chiminena, was very interested in the nest box, when I put it in the cage, this is unusual because she normally does not want anything to to with anything, that is new but the "nest box', ( actually a plastic bottle, with a opening big enough to go in, well she started checking it out right away.
Chiminena is not very tame, and does not like to be held, and she will bite very hard , a glove is needed to handle her, how ever Kiko, is very tame, he will accept my hand, and offer his foot,to climb on,..usually. He also like very much to nibble at my fingernails, but never bites, in a way that hurts, when I have Kiko, the female, Chiminena gets very angry and screams a lot, she slowly is starting to come closer, when I have my hand in the cage, and Kiko comes right to me, sometimes she, hides behind him, and peaks around ,..well I need to close for now,
