Hi,

My BFPFs have just laid an egg... in a bare hole in a hanging basket. Should I be worried? :crazy: :wtf: :crazy:

They have lots of nesting material supplied daily - they also have nest boxes, wicker baskets, shrubbery and brush cylinders.

How did the BFPF's go with the egg, did anything come of it or was it a dud
Thanks
