Our in-depth look
Who it's for
Experienced breeders planning a clutch.
Who should skip it
Most pet owners. Nest boxes can trigger hormonal behaviour and chronic egg-laying, which is a health risk for hens.
Tips
Talk with an avian vet before breeding.
Questions owners ask
Should my pet bird have a nest box?
Usually no — it can encourage egg-laying and hormonal behaviour.
Is chronic egg laying dangerous?
Yes, it can deplete calcium; see an avian vet.
