paulus 26 Posted December 27, 2012 Report Share Posted December 27, 2012 I have a fife canary cock i fancy breeding in spring... Ive no clue where to start what breed hen would you use if it was you? I was going to try and find a fife hen but are their any other options i can consider? apart from a breeding cage what else do i need to get started? double breeding cage, nest pan and felt plus nest building material, some conditioning seed and eggfood should do it also some dummy eggs to replace daily untill shes finished laying so they all hatch at the same time, ive got some of them somewhere if you find a hen. maybe a border hen might be easier to find Quote Link to post Share on other sites
