No they do not. If they did it would be very easy to separate the future roosters from the future hens.

Chicks can hatch at any time of day or night, as they follow their natural instinct to break free from the egg when they are ready. The process can take several hours, but it is not uncommon for hatching to occur during the night.


After a egg has hatch do you remove the male parakeet if it is pecking the baby parakeet?

Yes you do if the male is being violent to the chicks. Especially if the female is being disturbed by the male or trying to defend the chicks. Get the female together though in the male's cage once and awhile so the couple will not forget about eachother, but do that a few days, (maybe 2 weeks) after the chicks have hatched. Depends on the age of the chicks. If they are out of the nest, pecking at them is natures way of weaning them to eat on their own. If they are very young, I would put male in a cage setup right next to the female, so he can continue to feed her through the bars. The female depends a lot on the male after the chicks are hatched.

No. A broody hen will hatch a brood of chicks the way nature intended. Incubators or a brood hen are the only two ways to get chicks, egg won't hatch into chicks without the proper conditions of heat and humidity for 21 days.
