There are many factors that can result in eggs not hatching. Just to name a few...
The eggs may be infertile, the parents may be too young and inexperienced and may not know how to incubate. They may need more practice. The parents are being bothered while in the nest. The parents are being distracted. The chicks are dying in the shell, the chicks may be too weak to develop completely due to inbreeding or unhealthy parents... there are soooo many reasons why the eggs are not hatching.... more info is needed to determine the reason to the problem.

How long does it take perico eggs to hatch?
Perico is the Spanish word for Parakeet. Parakeet eggs start to hatch about 18 days after the female begins to incubate them.
What happens if the parakeet is not fertilised?
well, actually nothing. Your parakeet may also lay eggs but, the eggs AREN'T going to hatch. :(
Can parakeet have eggs while caring for their babies that are two months?
Yes, they can have eggs as soon as the first eggs hatch.
Can the blue mystery snail lay unfertile eggs?
I have raised blue mystery snails for a few years and I have never seen one lay eggs when they were the only snail in the tank. I have seen egg clutches that didn't hatch, but I attribute that to an issue of the environment and not the fertility of the eggs.
How do you stop a parakeet from having a baby?
I do not think you can. My parakeets had eggs and they did not hatch because she did not take care of them right. If they do have eggs you may take them away and sell them or kill them.
How many eggs does a parakeet lay a year?
It depends on your parakeet. If the parakeet is a female over about 4 months old, they are capable of laying eggs If it does not have a mate, it usually will not lay any eggs, however its possible. Obviously these eggs will be infertile and will not hatch If she does have a mate, they will lay eggs as long as they have access to a nest box and breeding stimulus (such as extended daylight) It is healthy for a parakeet to lay up to 2 clutches of eggs a year. A clutch is usually 4 eggs. Any more than this and the birds health is endangered. Egg-laying uses up the calcium in the female bird (hen), so you will need to provide her with cuttlebone. Dont attempt breeding your birds unless you have thorougly researched it first. good luck
How long til a birds egg hatch parotkeet?
I'm assuming that you're asking how long parakeet eggs incubate for. Answer: about 18 days.
What temperature does a parakeet egg need to be to hatch?
The same as all other bird eggs - 37.5C, give or take a quarter degree or so.
Do parakeet that come from the store lay eggs?
yes but they will only hatch into chicks if there was a male and female. or else they are just duds. you can do whatever you want with the duds.
How do you take care of the eggs your parakeet had?
For parakeet eggs, letting the parents incubate the eggs and raise the young is best. If you plan on breeding your parakeets I would recommend getting books or reading on the internet information specific to the species of parakeet you would like to raise, there are many different types and each type has its own special needs. If you have only 1 parakeet and it has lain an egg on the bottom of the cage you may discard that egg. Since there is no boy bird, and the egg was not laid in a nest specific to that type of parakeet it will not hatch.
How long can a parakeet lay eggs?
If she sits on it right when she lays it 18 days if she sits on it after the second one is laid then 20 days for the first to hatch and 18 for the second one to hatch. That's just an average but seems to ring true.
How should you control the temperature and humidity on two different clutches of duck eggs incubating in the same incubator at the same time with different hatch dates?
There's no need to. Some will just hatch sooner than others.
