Egg laying

Latest comment: 10 days ago1 comment1 person in discussion

I have a 3 year old ( I think ) female. She lives by herself and in the last couple of months she has laid 2 eggs. The eggs have been one at a time. Her name is Pip and she is lovely. Pip will only come out of her cage for me. She will go to my husband sometimes but only if she is walking around and climbs up his leg. Pip does say a few words that we understand and some words we don’t. Pip has also been making some other sound, I can’t describe it, would it be because she is in season or nearly ready to produce an egg. Pip is a Red Collared lorikeet and I bought her from a pet store. She is healthy as I got her DNA tested and they did a health check. If you could send me anymore information on her that would be great as I want to give her a good life with me. Liz Lister ~2026-58564-69 (talk) 03:18, 4 November 2026 (UTC)Reply
