Welcome to GameBirdForum.com

I have had a pair of red golden for three years. last year the female built a nest for the first time and laid eggs in it. However, she would remove and replase the egss constantly. I couldn't figure it out. She laid approximately 10 eggs but never sat on them. This year she just built a nest and laid one egg in the nest. The day after, I went out to check the nest to see if the egg was still in it. I happened to look just as the male was rolling the egg out of the nest . he then proceeded to remove some of the straw from the nest. I now suspect the male was removing the eggs last year and she was putting them back. Does any one have a clue as to why he is doing this or experienced this with their own birds? I would also like some advise about getting another female or two. I would like to be able to get a hatch to add to my stock. (more females hopefully) Am I limiting myself with just one female?
