My Bird layed an EGG!!!!
For those of you who don’t know my bird, Lotus, she is a 20 year-old Green-winged Macaw. She has lived with us for 18 years and this year decided to nest. On June 13th, she layed her first egg ever. Granted, she doesn’t have a mate (unless you count that she thinks I’m her mate) so her egg isn’t fertile, but it still seemed like a big event in our family.
Lotus’ egg is about the size of a medium chicken egg and is white. Green-winged macaw incubation period is about 25 days, so when it doesn’t hatch around that time, she should abandon it (hopefully sh’e read the book on that one).
Just thought you may want to know!
