slip lead 862 Posted March 21, 2014 Report Share Posted March 21, 2014 Get yourself some door closers and it will never happen again. The same thing happened to me a couple of years back I lost a lot of birds mostly canary hens that were also on eggs the worst of it was most were paired with siskins/ redpolls/ and a couple of goldfinches the f**king door was only open an inch or so but was enough to loose about 20 odd birds and obviously all the eggs that were left, the only ones I managed to get under other hens that hatched were linnet/greenfinch hybrids Quote Link to post Share on other sites
