How often is it okay/are you supposed to, check your hen's nest box? and is it okay to check if she is inside?

Hello. My male parakeet seems really lonely now that the female is incubating the eggs, so i think that i should help him by giving him my company. when i talk to him he sort of tweets back to me, i dont know if this means anything but it makes me feel good. I just wish he would trust my hand, but i dont know how to get him to. once in a while, if i put my hand by his belly he will stand on it briefly, but sometimes he just flies away, and other times he pecks at my hand. However, if he is out of the cage, he will stand on my hand for longer periods of time, but my house is not very safe for him to fly around in. I dont know what to do but i want to help him, and for him to trust me. help? thank you.

I currently have two budgies, a green/yellow female, and a blue/white male. they currently have six eggs that are due to hatch soon! I am not an experienced breeder,and these are my first eggs. wish me luck!
