Best Answer

Normally 2 for crow ,pigeon, dove and others , 2-12 may be average for smaller birds. We have flying snakes also not called birds laying many dozen eggs. If we consider bats giving birth to youngs instead of eggs then it is no eggs to many dozen

Unlike other oviparous organisms, female birds can lay only one egg per day because they have only a single ovary (very different from reptiles or mammals) and the eggs - heavy with a calcareous shell - must come separately down the oviduct. The right ovary is present only in immature birds and a few very primitive species like galliforms. Eggs remain in the small oviduct for twenty hours in most cases.

Although laying intervals of a single day are typical of many bird species, there are a large number, including all parrots, raptors, and wading birds like herons, which lay only every two days. Two-day laying intervals are also found in the Coraciiformes and in many suboscine passerines. Many parrots and swifts lay only every third day.

In the extreme case of species like eagles, gannets and some cranes with "obligate siblicide" where a second egg is laid purely as insurance against the failure of the first, laying intervals can be as great as one week. Moreover, most pelagic seabirds can never lay more than one egg in a year and the largest - albatrosses - can breed only every second year.

How long is a budgies gestation for?

Birds including budgies do not get 'pregnant' they lay eggs, incubate the eggs which then hatch into chicks.I saw my budgies mate together Dec. 26, 2010. I separated them to another cage, away from my other 3 budgies. I put in their cage 2 nesting boxes. Every day I checked for eggs. Today, Jan. 24, 2011, I found 2 eggs in the corner of their cage, on the floor of the cage. They did not like the nesting boxes I provided. That is about a month gestation.

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.
