I don't know much about Budgies, but I bought two, and built a big cage, and thought I would try to breed them. Well it worked and now they just don't stop laying eggs or having babies. I give them multivitamin blocks, and vitamized water and spray millet and cuttle bones, constantly but am just wondering if I should stop them?? She has layed 5 batches this year I think jeez 5-7 eggs each time......Can they be fed enough and given good enough nutrients to keep this up?? I keep just giving the birds away. Will it kill the female??

5 eggs left to hatch, and it is a liquid bird vitamin that I add to the water..what is egg and biscuit mix??? all my birds seem to get along, one cage 2 breeding nests and one male, only one female has laid eggs, I got the second female because she had a really dark cere and the other wasn't breeding and the cere was almost white, it didn't change until the other female laid eggs, now it is dark brown.

It was an experiment I had 2 females and one male. Now I have one hatched and five more eggs to go. I give them a mineral block, vitamins in the water, oyster shells(they never touch) and cuttlebones. I use a premium food that has eggplant and fruit and vegtables and different seeds..Wondering if this is enough?? Hoping so, I don't want to spend too much time with this, hand feeding is not an entertaining idea for me, have a cat as well, always hanging off the cage...but anyways....I have built them a 3 and 1/2 foot long cage that is 2 feet high and 14 inches wide, it seems big enough. Wondering at what age can I give them away??? What problems I might encounter?? The chances of problems, not prepared to deal with splayed legs, jeez I hope they all will get enough food.....The breeding pair were very young probably around 10 months old, a blue regular and an all yellow special, wondering what I will get?? What should I expect here??? With all this could someone give me some advice and personal experience......Just hope she will raise them, though the male goes in the nest by himself at times too, just hope they grow and I can give them away, what does everybody think????
