Budgie trying to toss eggs out of the nest box

My budgie laid an egg two days back and it was found broken on the floor of the cage. It seems that she laid it from the perch where she usually rests at night. Today she laid another one in the nest box, but is now trying to toss it out of the nest box. She sometimes tries to incubate it for a minute and then tries to toss it out. What should be done?

This is normal...nothing to worry about.
Mom knows what's going on here... :)

She clearly doesn't have the natural breeding instincts so just remove the nest box and avoid anything else that encourages nesting.
