October marked the start of the rainy season and probably this is the normal breeding period.

There is a seasonal pattern in the breeding period of the birds.

It would mean too that the breeding period of older specimens was extended.

During the breeding period, this behavior is repeated almost every day for a month or longer.

The breeding period can last up to 11 days, and a female usually mates with four males during that time.

The average length of the breeding period is 6.8 months.

Pairing of a male and a female may be limited to the breeding period.

Males will fight for groups of females which form during the breeding period.

This species can have several generations within their breeding period due to the fast rate of growth.

The length of the breeding period depends on the rainfall and may last a month or only few days.
