Help me with my zebrs finches?

I brouhgt a nest box for mt zebra finches and the female is just lieing on the top and only the male goes in there the female just stays at the top.
Wht is wrong ???
Answers:
My Zebras build their nest in the bamboo bowl like nest..and they have used a large food dish..they will nest anywhere they can when their in the mood and that seems to be all the time.
In 2 years they have laid 110 eggs.
Did you provide them with some nesting material? You can use straw, bits of yarn, cotton balls. Just make sure that the string or straw is cut into 4" peices.
Add the different materials %26 you will see them go to work on nest building.
Also, young Zebras are slow to start nest building. As the mature, they get better at it.
Perhaps there is not enough room for the female in the nest. Try placing the nesting material outside of the nest. Then the Zebra Finches will fix their nest however they like.
maybe she hostile give her time to her new surroundings

goo luck!! :p
