These birds were kept mated and laid numerous eggs during 1897 (22 eggs), 1898 (16 eggs), 1899 (18 eggs), and 1900 

 (7 eggs). The male died 8/?/1900. Few of these eggs were incubated— this pair being used to nest the eggs of other birds. 

 Nevertheless 6 eggs were hatched in 1897, 6 in 1898, and 8 in 1899. The length of life of all these young is unknown.— Editor.
