Budgies which are getting close to laying an egg become more lively, excitable and playful. If they have a nesting box, they will spend a lot more time in the box, preparing it for nesting, and possibly being very protective of that area. If there is a male, he may start feeding the female.
Budgies look the same when they are laying eggs as when they aren't. In other words, birds don't "hold" their eggs inside their bodies and show a big belly to indicate that eggs are on the way. The egg shell is the last thing that develops right before the egg is laid, therefore, a hen doesn't "show" in the sense that human women "show" when they are pregnant.
Swelling in the abdominal area could also mean the parrot is egg-bound, though this tends to present more as swelling near the bird's tail, near the cloacae. She will be distressed and show signs of constipation, be reluctant to move and "waddle" like a penguin. If your bird shows signs of being egg-bound, she must be taken to the vet as soon as possible, as this can be a life-threatening condition.

Yes, Roald Dahl did breed budgies. He bred and raised budgerigars (parakeets) as a hobby. Dahl was known to be very fond of animals and had a variety of pets throughout his life.
yes you can but it can harm the babies
Possibly if they are kept in the same cage and offered a nesting box, but usually budgies are monogamous.
budgie's will typically breed themselves to death.. if you let them. but because of the amount of calcium the hens ( female budgies) lose when you breed them you should NOT let them have more than TWO CLUTCHES a YEAR, if you do it can cause problems with egg laying.
Budgies don't stop being able to breed. If you don't want them to breed I would recommend putting them in separate cages.
Bulls are ready to breed anytime. A young bull is expected to be ready to breed by the time he's around 10 to 12 months old.
dont ask that again cause it sounds wrong and i dont know
Tabbies are not a breed, they are a fur color.
This is typical pre-nesting behaviour. The budgies, in particular the female, are preparing the nesting box for nesting. Some pairs of budgies never successfully breed, but they still display all the signs and behaviour of wanting to nest.
if their full grown they are ready.
If you want to breed budgies no because if they fall from the nest the chickens will kill them the same sometimes happens with adults so it is best not to even if you're not breeding
