Hello everyone, I'm hoping to get some answers here as my googling hasn't given me any answers yet.
One of my cockatiels just laid an egg, and its the first time she's done so. I have a good idea of how to handle her and the egg going forward, but what I don't know is what to do with my other tiel. I know the egg isn't fertilized because my other tiel is also female. The egg was laid in their shared "day time" cage (they sleep in separate cages). So I'm wondering now:
1. Do I keep my second tiel out of the cage away from the egg? I don't know if other female cockatiels get attached to eggs they didn't lay or if she'd try to destroy it or something.
2. Do I keep my first tiel in the day time cage and don't move her to her night time one?
Thank you for any input!!
