Turns out my male canary who i have been waiting patiantly to sing is actually a girl and is now laying eggs. My question is will they hatch? as she hasnt had a male in the same cage for about a month.

sorry the answer is no.but you can always get a male and see what happens.i would remove the eggs and after awhile she will stop laying.then in feb. you should start to breed her if you get a male.count yourself lucky its sometimes hard to find female canaries when you want them.if you live in a warm state you might be able to breed in the winter.but you must separate them and let the love affair start from a distance,in a breeder cage or even in an aviary.male will sing to her and she will respond and when u put them together they will do the rest
have fun

well, it depends. if she isnt laying on the eggs for a long time they wint hatch. sorry to say that but its true. and if she is sitting on it then there will be no problem at all and the eggs will most likely hatch. o and by the way you might want to get a male in the cage because she might want to actually sit on the eggs more.

Thats no longer ordinary in case you situation her too a lot she would be in a position to no longer sit down on the eggs anymore and that they'll die. I had a parakeet that laid eggs, like six of them, and then she merely randomly did no longer want to anymore. Then I had yet another parakeet that laid one egg. Hatched the egg. Had a splash infant chook and then randomly didnt want to shelter it anymore. it may consume something and it ended loss of existence that comparable day. i think of in case you touch the eggs the mum could have a situation with it.

There needs to be a male there to fertilize the eggs or will not turn to babies and hatch.My mother had one that did the same.

I've had seven babies (three nests) from one pair this year.
The question is...who will buy them when they hatch?
Most people want hookbills.

If it's been a month, then no they won't hatch.
