Please, please, please don't take them away from her at all! Just leave them where she has laid them and let her tend to them. She knows instinctively how many days it should take them to hatch. Once they have not hatched in the time they should have, she will abandon her little nest and you can remove them at that time.

If you remove them before she abandons them, this can lead to her laying another clutch. Birds can double and even sometimes, triple, clutch. This can very, very easily lead to a calcium depletion in her and can make her very ill.

Whether she has finished laying or if she is still laying, put an egg in the blender every morning, shell and all, and pulverize it (a chicken egg ~ not one of her eggs). Scramble the pulverized egg and shell and, when it's cooled off, offer it to her in a separate feeding cup, The calcium in the shell will replenish the calcium she has expended in her egg production.

Act as though nothing is out of the ordinary. If she wants to sit on her eggs, just let her and don't disturb her. This is a cycle she needs to complete and messing it up has a high probability of causing problems.

People have accidentally caused their birds to become almost perpetual layers by repeatedly taking their eggs away from them. If she continues to lay even after you have removed her abandoned eggs several times, you might need to get her a mate and a nest box. Sometimes birds are just very determined to be parents! You can take them away as soon as you find them--it won't cause any problems with your cockateil. It's best to do it somewhat quickly because you don't want to the eggs to rot (that is an awful smell!). I believe you can purchase fake eggs if you just want to switch them out and avoid your cockateil from laying more in the future. A.S.A.P you dont want her 2 get attached 2 them so throw them ut so she can lay some fertile ones Quite the contrary! Many female Cockateils will suffer from anxiety if their eggs are taken away immediately. It can also ruin the trust your bird has with you. I've been told, by breeders and my vet that if you wait three or four days before removing the eggs, they will be able to cope with it better. My breeder also told me that you should remove your female from the cage before doing this, making sure she doesn't see you do it so it won't affect your relationship with her. Of course, if the eggs are broken, you can remove them immediately because your female already realizes nothing is going to hatch from those eggs. my birds layed 5 eggs this year . all were infertile. when the male and female dont sit on them any more,, usually after about 21 days i would say. take them away. they know and lose interest. YOU SHOULD TAKE THEM AWAY AS SOON AS POSSIBLE, you should take them away as soon as possible is a load of baloney,rubbish,rubbish rubbish.where do get such information?
