A nestbox (either homemade or bought) is a wooden box with a circular hole just big enough to admit small birds, or may be open fronted for larger birds such as owls, etc. The nestbox can be fixed high in a tree or on the side of a house. The aim is to give a nesting box that a mated pair of birds can lay and raise their young.

Can you use a finch nest for a parrotlet?

No, it is not recommended to use a finch nest for a parrotlet. Parrotlets require a larger nest box with a different design to accommodate their size and specific needs.

What if your rabbit is to have babies in 1 day is it normal for her to just sit in the corner in her nest?

Your doe is more than likely NOT going to have babies. Is she using her nest box for a potty?? That is a sure sign she is not pregnant, either that or you put her nest box in her potty corner and her cage is too small for her to establish another potty area. Usually after a doe makes her nest she does not set in it until the babies are born. Did you put the nest in too early??? That is another reason she might set in it. A nest box should not be put in with your doe until 3 days before she is due.
