    Hi All just a quick question i am new to breeding budgies and seam a bit confused , like this week had two pair in my birding cages for about 2 weeks and no inter action between the birds took place apart for the hens having a peck at the cocks my question is this both male when returned to the flight went straight to other male birds and starting feeding each other and for a better word starting doing the courting routine , and dont even seam interested in the hens in the flight my second question is this , i have an 2010 hen in a other breeding with 6 eggs all but 1 are fertile she was late to sit on the eggs not till the 3rd egg was laid did she sit, after the 6th egg was laid she has started to attacking the cock bird every time he goes near the food/seed tray , i have removed the cock bird for his own safety and he has settled back in the flight okay my question is will it be okay to leave the hen on her own? or will she abandoned the nest? or can she still sit on the eggs and feed herself also? my problem being i have no more nests to move the eggs all advise welcome many many thanks Tim
