Leave your parakeet alone . . . she knows what she's doing. Parakeets do not place bedding into their nesting boxes, so your pet is fine.

Is parakeet a mammal?
No a parakeet is definitely NOT a mammal. They belong in the bird species. They lay eggs and have feathers. Parakeets are birds and remember that.
How do you know if a parakeet is going to hatch eggs?
Noramally, is pretty difficult to determine wether the bird will lay eggs or not. But keep in mind if it's one bird, it wont hatch. It takes a female and male. Females can lay eggs on their own but it wont be fertilized. You could probably tell if the bird goes inside a nesting box (if she has one) often.
