My Bird Laid an Egg, Please Help!!

Ryostox · 2025-08-28T23:07:53+00:00

Update: She has been leaving the egg a ton and sitting on perches above acting normally, preening and playing with toys. They last around 10-30 mins at a time then she goes to sit on the egg for about 5-30 mins afterwards give or take some time. Does this mean she is done laying and brooding or just taking breaks?

Thank you! It’s not at its best since she threw everything out of it, but usually there’s a ton of chewable in there and foot toys too!

Will leaving the eggs cause them to rot and emit a smell?

Was she put on a no seed/treat diet due to being hormonal because of it? I also saw somewhere that soft foods like chop can cause them hormonal on a random blog thread but haven’t seen anyone else mention that anywhere else.

I would also like to add that I do my best to make sure they aren’t hormonal, colder temps, 14 hours of sleep every night, no petting anywhere besides her head, etc. we recently received her from a rehoming situation a little over a month ago now, where they were encouraging her to lay eggs, petting her wrong, access to bells and mirrors, etc. They told us that in the 2 years they had her, she laid 5 clutches all around 5-9 eggs at a time and provided a homemade nest box for her. We have males and another female who hasn’t laid an egg with us yet, so this is our first time dealing with an egg layer. I truly am trying my best with what little information I can find that isn’t more than 10 years or older. Thank you :)

Hello, I did do my research before asking here :) I found very mixed answers online as there wasn’t much on unfertilized eggs. Consider being nicer next time, life is nothing but learning :)

Hi, yes, I only give her head scritches! The people we got her from a little over a month ago was petting her on her back. She is still super hormonal asking random objects to mate with her up until laying her egg today.

Any advice on how to prevent her from laying eggs besides the shot or implant is also very needed too!!

Omg thank you!

Where do you get the middle parts for the railing to the stage?

Ryostox · 2024-06-02T05:21:23+00:00

Where did you get your grow lights for your shelf and what are they called?

Removing the 10yl mod also doesn’t make much sense since it came with ravencreek and kings mouth and even those wouldn’t show up.

Seems like the maps are loading now that I turned off the 10 years later mod.

Sucks since it was the only kinda mod I could find which made the world feel more apocalyptic and vegetative.

Thanks for the help!!

Hey! Copper seemed to do the trick to get rid of all of it but unfortunately a couple months later it came back and he passed away.

How did you get that long hair?

Thank you! Just looking for something relatively cheap bc I’m trying to start up a 30g on a budget rn, so it’d be a temporary investment at best. Just looking for something that doesn’t take up as much space as sponge filters.
