They are still digging every so often, when I wall doing a water change Butters bit me and was chasing the gravel vac. I will try not to disturb them at this point on out until it happens. I really hope its soon.

Reintroduced them last night. Giving up on the larger male until I can find a nice large parrot for him, sucks because my local store had sold one the morning I went to get the heater for my new 130 gallon.

Back to my male I started with. Hoping she lays in the next couple weeks because she has always laid eggs at the end of the month.

So part of why its taking so long is because I keep messing with their tank and moving them but no more. I'm positive they are a pair its a matter of being patient and waiting.

So heres the prespawn video

looks like breeding prep to me....i know its hard to leave them alone lol ...I ust picked up this new parrot im pretty sure is female tonite.. the bonsai tex that i bred is in love with her, keeps trying to lead her into a cave ...we'll see how it goes, I couldnt resist ive wanted one of these "panda parrots" for a long time of white and red, and this one in particular has red around her eyes just patches like a real panda....would be neat to see if they make anything :p ...good luck with yours!

Thats sick, I could have got one too but it wasn't nearly as white. I wish store carried larger sized parrots. Anything local can only get around 2 inches. I need to call up one of the and see if he can order larger sized ones. I'm half tempted to just shell out the $25 for a Petsmart one. Too bad they are closed thanksgiving because I will be near one that day.
