Bad Behaviour
Hard to say. Females always bicker over space on perches...they are territorial. Anytime you see biting at each other on a perch its usually female to female behaviour. Worse when moulting...they get crankier. Check your cage size and perching arrangements and see if that may be the cause.

French Moult Or Something Else?
Info in initial post seems to indicate ongoing issue not a one off night fright.

Breeding Condition
They will produce eggs but often when out of condition and on eggs they lose interest in the eggs, lose interest in chicks, may attack their cock and get nasty and grumpy and bitey and in most cases need fosters for back ups to relieve the hen of her duties. Its just not worth the aggravation to try at this stage. My opinion only.

Quality?
Red ringer ? Remember the blue rings came into use 1st September last year so your red ringer may well be old enough to breed.

French Moult Or Something Else?
French moulters often have trouble growing in new flight feathers. They break off and bleed just like yours is doing. I would say ...yes she is.

Deep Litter
My smaller aviary I used while building the bigger aviaries was a seed husk floor. What i noticed was more chance of sickness with the seed debris on the floor, and also wastage of seed was higher than a clean concrete floor. Also some hens liked to nest in it. I wouldnt do it again. and MOTHS !!

Quick Question
If they are dry porridge oats, allow them to get warm and you can lift the eggs with a spoon, put the oats in and replace the eggs all in one movement quickly while she is out of the nest. Do you have a spare room you can put the cage in away from the cats ? All this based on your concern about keeping them warm

Quick Question
Have you any nestbox materials in the nestbox....you can use dry porridge oats or flaky bran.....less chance of them tossing it out Is the cage inside the house ?
-
Quick Question
You are colony breeding and thats the hardest way to breed budgies. They can fight over nestboxes, smash eggs raid each others nestbox and kill chicks just when you are getting delighted about having chicks. If you have any budgies in the aviary under 12 months you will be forcing them to breed too young. No budgies under 12 months should be anywhere that nestboxes are. Something to think about
