Post: My zebra finch laid an egg

Posted by Kitty.J on 6/15/06

I am fimiliar with breeding finches and parakeets. But
just recently after I put my hen with her new mate they
hit it off very well. She lvoed him when she first heard
his unusual "net" (Maybe she doesn't find his voice
unusual maybe even sexy (for a finch) but to me its the
weirdest "net net" voice ever). Well anyway( About two
weeks later) I notice an egg in the food dish. I have
notice them sleeping in their food dish instead of on the
highest perch of the cage and she laid a single egg 2 days
ago. No other egg since. Well she is not young. But around
2 years of age and this egg she laid is small compared to
the eggs she has laid before. So I am wondering how big a
Zebra finch's egg should measure? Thanks! And sorry about
my ranting I should've just came out and asked my
question! lol
