in about ten days you'll see them come out of the nest and be a happy parent. if you have access to mini mealies or maggots that will help but not absolutely necessary, put in some small amounts of fresh cos lettuce or endive each day if you have available. Good luck.

Another alternative I have found that my OBs like is frozen peas and corn that I have placed in the blender to breakup while frozen. They share this with Zebs, Nuts, DBs and Ruddies and seems to go down well. They have also joined the Ruddies at the termite plate when made available.....good luck

Hoping my new pair go down soon as they are very keen on the greens and nesting material. Thanks Flap. If you ever have weevils in seed they love them.
