1# Are you willing to lose both of the parents and chicks?
2# Are you willing to pay $500+ in vet bills?
3# Do you have the right nest box?
4# Is the nest box positioned where it can be checked frequently?
5# Are both birds in the correct condition?
6# Have you researched long and hard about breeding?
7# Are they on a good diet?
8# Is there calcium supplements in the cage/aviary?
