My banggai cardinals have eggs close to hatching, he has a reputation of eating the eggs (9 times) I was wondering if anyone has any tips for catching him or a idea on how to make some fish traps for him.
My problem is since he has eggs food won’t lure him so how would traps work, so far I’ve used nets but it’s occasionally destructive, takes time and a lot of luck and lots of times it doesn’t work.
Any ideas, should I leave him alone and see if he won’t eat the eggs this time,
thanks
Edit; my problem is not him not eating. Once he spits the eggs he begins to eat when food is available. Think I made it a bit confusing sorry, I need a good way to catch him so the babies and/or eggs don’t get eaten.
He currently looks to have some eggs
