First of all, your over doing it on the vitamins, cut back to once a month. Also try a 12" by 12" breeder box hanging on the outside of the cage, because you need to check the box everyday even though you know there is no eggs, it is to get them used to you going in and checking on them and the eggs. Do not use someone elses box, have a 2 1/2 inch hole and a medium size perch an 1 1/2 down from the entery hole and have new wood shavings filling the box one inch from the hole and pack it tight. Have good perches in the cage for " Doing the Deed " They may empty most of the shavings DO NOT put the shavings back in it will prolong the breeding. They also need 12 hours of lite and complete darkness. If they are out on the porch, make sure there is nothing scaring them. If they start breeding do not move the cage or them. Start with this and see how it goes.
