Having problem with my fantail


I am from india ,..

My fantail pair, third time its going to lay the infertile eggs,..

My male bird having some problem with his leg from birth(one of the leg is bended like a fishing hook), But it can walk and stand well .

I haven't seen them crossed (mated) each other.
But it cooing and attracting the female , sitting together, collecting nesting materials and all ..

I am sure that they didn't mated as of now..

But i want to see my fantail babies ,.. Give me some idea..

Female looking good , shall i change my male ?
What are all the other best male bread other than fantail which can suit and mate easily with fantail hen?

Give me some suggestion ,.. I want my fantail hen to lay some fertile egg..

I don't think the hen has the problem, since she is laying eggs. Perhaps the male is not able to mount the hen properly because of the problem with the leg, he still may be fertile

You can cross breed your bird with any bird you feel is right for her. You will not have a purebred fantail babies, if you choose a homing pigeon, but that is your business. There is nothing wrong with that.

As long as the bird is about the same size, a fantail another fantail would be best, but a homing pigeon the same size, is fine.
