on the weekend had 2 nests cleared out, both pairs already laid a fourth round of eggs

pulled the nests out and cleaned them

covered the entrance holes with zerbra sized holes

now the goulds cant get in, the zebras are loving it, more nests for the zebs

the gouldians are not happy

That's good info.
I would have never thought to use an entrance hole that small.
Might have to make a couple up at 32mm.

My Goulds prefer the smaller entrance hole, keeps the light out so the nest is darker inside, also keeps more heat in the nest
