Good to see guys πŸ‘πŸ˜ most of my pairs have gone down now and other spare birds are keener to find mates.

More fighting since bowls went in than when I opened pipo boxes up, found 3 bowls on floor and a different pair in a box than before

Hopefully they will sort themselves out in plenty of time before first eggs are laid.

Most of mine are settled into their boxes but it has been a game getting a couple of pairs sorted as some cocks just think they are entitled to more than one box 😬😑 I've shut one more pair into the last available nest box this evening, the cock bird that thinks this box is his is now feeding a baby so I'm hoping he might give up on the 2nd box πŸ€žπŸ™πŸ€ž

I hope your birds settle down soon mate, this cold snap won't help as it will put some birds off pairing up.

Few more this morning so looking good for you both, couple on floor but probably from birds not in boxes and not wanting to breed off
