I have heard that it is hard to get hawkheads to breed, but not that it is hard
to raise the hatchlings.  Anyway, Life Fellowship has raised many hawkheads
over the last several years and I am sure they could answer any questions
your mother might have concerning the raising of the babies.  Call Greg Moss
at 813-681-4047.

I'd be interested in some details about the type of nest box, nesting material,
diet, etc. that your mother used for her hawkheads.  If you get a chance, please
email me whatever information you can.  We have two pairs of hawlheads that
have yet to produce, but they haven't been set up in a breeding situation that
long.

Congratulations,
Steve Scheid
