eitjes kanarie

The eggs — thanks to Mr. Albrechts
Normally the bird lays one egg per day, and incubation begins once the last egg is laid. The eggs hatch after about 13 days, depending on the bird species. A breeding calendar is a useful tool for this. Birds typically lay 1 to 6 eggs. Both the male and the pupa breed so that the pupa can eat and drink.
