SANDY: I wondered about that myself, from everything I have read, (and I cleaned her cage and box) as long as you. wash your hand really good, and do not touch the eggs(i put on a rubber glove) they should be fine. I would clean the cage, around the eggs etc, as much as you can As well as long as they have fresh food water, mineral block etc, A dirty cage won't hurt them. I know it bothers us more than it bothers them!

FOR SHY: THis reply is for Shy: Hi Let her go in and out of her cage as usual, the best thing to do, is let nature take it's course, Not to interfere, only if the egg/eggs need to be removed If she is not sitting on the egg, I would throw it, From everything I've read, and what's been happing with my female, They know when they are ready and sometimes their hormones are not developed enough to create a healthy egg. I noticed mine, laid numerous eggs, then out of the blue she laid 3 and has been laying on them steady. So out of all her times, she chooses now. And chances are they may not even be healthy eggs.. If your female is not laying on her egg/eggs, do not try to make her. she will do this naturally. I hope this helps. I am new to the breeding of budgies, I do a lot of reading about it. If you need any advice I will try to offer what I can. Good-luck

Hello, my daughter has two budgies and they are breeding last year they had three eggs only one hatched, after the baby budgie reached mature age he climbed out of the box, we just made a cardboard box because we could find one at the store. We laid some paper towel on the bottom of the cage so it’s more comfortable, as the days pasted the baby still hasn’t started to walk we were worried, we looked up on it, he had something called “splayed legs” we tried to fix his legs by looking some things up on google. We still didn’t know what caused the problem but we found out either it was low calcium or the nest box was non grippy for the baby budgie. Now our hen has more eggs and we still have the same nest box, we are scared for the baby’s that will hatch, we want to switch the next box to a wooden one but she could get stressed and she might not like it any ideas for us?

I have 2 budgies, I added a nesting box like 1 month ago. I have noticed that they started to make eggs but, I see that they all ready threw 2 out. They are cracked, but I am not sure if it was because they threw it out and it fell. We took the eggs out so it woulnt just be in the cage cracked. I am not sure what to do.

I didnt notice my budgies lay one egg coz my budgies lives outside the cage most of the time. Only one egg. Should i not let her get out of the cage? I made a small hatching box with cardboard coz i didnt see them sitting on the egg. What must i need to do? Please help..

My nesting mother, 5 eggs laid over about 10 days, has plucked all of the feathers from her chest and some off her back. Does this mean she is unwell, stressed or simply a nesting behaviour?

I have a question. My female budgie has laid 3 eggs with no nesting box. I have out some cardboard and paper down. She doesn't use them, she will push her eggs where she laid them and perch her bottom up in the corner of the cash and sit in the eggs. My question is, can I still clean the cage from all the shells from the birdseed and all the dropping?! Or, will that make her deteor from her eggs?! Please help, first time for this happening it's been 6 days now with no cleaned cage, just clean water and food.

Shailja.. You need to buy a 20 ware "full spectrum" light bulb that acts and gives off energy like the actual sun. A ordinary light bulb probably won't help much.

How long can budgies not sit on their eggs? My budgie rejected one of her four eggs today. Afterwards she was initially sitting on the remaining eggs. Now she hasn’t entered the nest in over an hour. Should I incubate the eggs myself?

Woaw, one can learn a lot from the questions as well as feedback if you are a first time owner
