canary breeding

Please could someone tell me if it is alright to just leave a hen canary on her eggs to hatch naturally on successive days instead of removing the eggs until a clutch is complete?

Re: canary breeding

Plenty of people do, but the chances of successfully raising the whole brood is increased if the chicks are raised at the same age.

Re: canary breeding

Thanks for advice. The hen hatched three out of four eggs, they have all survived and are now away from the nest and flying.
