This pair is acquired soon after the young one in Dec. 2008. The male is probably at least 3-4 years old, while the female is about the same age. Introduce them together in the aviary (6ft H x 6ft L x 3ft W) in mid Feb. 09. At first, the male chased the female around the aviary but soon he relax a little and allow the female flied out of the bush to come to the feeding dish to eat and drink. Around March 3rd or 4th, first egg is laid. Observed incubate the eggs on Friday night. I'll keep both my fingers cross hope my first ever breeding experiment in this type of songbirds will have good result with many babies, hehe......
