Budgies typically sit on their eggs after laying a clutch, which usually consists of 4 to 6 eggs laid a day or two apart. The female will begin incubating the eggs once the last one is laid, and she generally sits on them for about 18 days until they hatch. During this incubation period, the male may assist by bringing food to the female.
The typical hatching time for budgies' eggs is around 18-21 days.
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.
it is the Australian budgie which is the biggest of the budgies but i do not know how big it can grow to but it is pretty big
Well you see......This is a simple answer.Budgies throw their eggs out because people look at their nests,taking their eggs and mostly when people take one budgies and when others budgies see you are taking a budgie,they get annoyed by you and then throw their eggs out..............sometimes when male or female or one of the budgie in the cage dies then this happens.
Usualy budgies sit on their eggs for 18 days. If they have not started to hatch by this date they are likely to be latelings or unfertalised. If they do not hatch by then wait around another few days before coming to the conclusion that they are unfertalised.
It is always possible however it is quite unlikely.
not sure butif you do get budgies dont put a a male and a male and a female together one male will eat the male then it will eat the female and then it will eat the eggs and then it will die.
Often They will sit on one leg while they are sleeping or just before/ after. If your budgie sleeps with two legs then it is said to be a sign of illness.
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.
sit on the eggs
nothing. the female might not be pregnant yet. you'll have to wait and see
This is rare behaviour, but not completely unknown. Usually they sit on their perch.
