Breeding/Reproduction of Bronze wing pionus for sale

There is no visible means of sexing these birds, though their eye rings will turn a darker pink during the breeding season. The Bronze-winged Pionus form a very strong pair bond, sometimes resulting in over-zealous preening and plucking around the back of each others’ necks. They are a relatively difficult bird to breed as they tend to be rather nervous. A nest box should be approximately 10″ x 10″ x 24″ (26 x 26 x 62 cm) and to encourage breeding, placed it high up in a dark area of the aviary. The female will lay 4 to 5 eggs which incubate for about 26 days. Pairs may take mealworms and greenstuffs when they have chicks in the nest. Corncob is a favorite weaning food. The young leave the nest in the wild after about 8 weeks but can take a little longer in captivity, up to about 10 weeks. Buy bronze wing pionus for sale
