Eclectus Parrot Eggs For sale
Eclectus parrots are a vibrant and intelligent species known for their striking sexual dimorphism, where males are typically bright green and females are a vivid red or purple. When it comes to their breeding and eggs, here are some key points:
Breeding and Egg Laying:
1. Breeding Season: Eclectus parrots typically breed once or twice a year, depending on the environment and availability of resources. In captivity, they can breed year-round if conditions are favorable.
2. Nest: In the wild, they nest in tree hollows. In captivity, a large, secure nest box should be provided. The box should be approximately 24 inches tall, 12 inches wide, and 12 inches deep, with a smaller entrance hole around 4 inches in diameter.
3. Egg Laying: The female usually lays 2-3 eggs per clutch. The eggs are small, white, and oval-shaped.
Incubation:
1. Incubation Period: The incubation period for Eclectus parrot eggs is typically around 26-28 days.
2. Parental Care: In captivity, the female usually incubates the eggs and cares for the chicks, while the male provides food. It’s important to minimize disturbances during this period to avoid stressing the birds.
Our Eclectus Parrot Eggs For sale Care:
1. Temperature and Humidity: Maintaining the proper temperature (about 99-101 degrees Fahrenheit) and humidity (around 50-55%) is crucial for successful hatching. In captivity, an incubator may be used if the eggs are removed from the parents for any reason.
2. Monitoring: Regular monitoring of the eggs is important to ensure they are developing properly. This can include candling (using a bright light to see inside the egg) to check for signs of development.
Common Issues:
1. Infertility: Infertile eggs can occur and may need to be removed to prevent contamination of the nest.
2. Egg Binding: Female Eclectus parrots can sometimes experience egg binding, where they have difficulty laying eggs. This is a serious condition requiring veterinary intervention.
Raising Chicks:
1. Hatching: Once hatched, chicks are altricial, meaning they are born blind, naked, and helpless.
2. Feeding: The chicks rely on their parents (or caretakers in captivity) for food. Hand-feeding can be done using a specialized formula, but it requires experience and care to avoid issues like aspiration or malnutrition.
3. Fledging: Chicks usually fledge (leave the nest) at about 10-12 weeks of age but will continue to be dependent on their parents for several more weeks.

– Veterinary Care: Regular check-ups with an avian vet can help monitor the health of the breeding pair and their chicks.

The Eclectus personality has been misunderstood. Many have said this species is boring, dull, lethargic and even stupid. This is not the case. The Eclectus exhibiting these behaviors is showing its reaction to stress. Eclectus is an intelligent bird and when taught properly, they are capable of cognitive behavior from a very young age.
Homes with children, plenty of company, and lots of play and activity is not the best home for an Eclectus. But they do make a good pet for someone who lives alone, rarely has company, and where the environment and daily routine does not change. These parrots can also be rather noisy and are best suited to environments where their loud calls are not a bother.
Female Eclectus are the dominant gender. Consequently females tend to be louder and more moody than the males. When a female reaches breeding age, she may become more aggressive. She may also become occupied with checking out nooks and crannies around the house or aviary, looking for potential nesting spots.
