Birds are apt to make trouble about thehouse. They will break the eggs ; often eat them; not hatch the eggs out,and commence to lay again ; not raise the young after they are hatched, orsweat them to death by setting too close on them; throw ihe young out ofthe nest, nay, more, the male bird will sometimes, in a fit of jealousy, kill theyoung after they have left the nest. For the above troubles we have no rem-edy. The only way to do is to try another male or female, and exclude fromtbe cage which of the pair is at fault. Never try to breed from a male orfemale after they are over six years old; no good will come from them. Toraise good singers you want two first-class singers from one to two years old.
