Hi everyone  The 5 eggs my budgie layed I think are infertile. I am 100% sure they are infertile. Egg 1 ke sure.  Egg 2  Egg 3  Egg 4  Egg 5  The youngest egg (egg 5) is about 15 days old, so I am sure that they are not fertile. I just want another opinion Nicola |

No problem Carl I wasn't expecting them to be fertile  since the male is smaller than the female. When I saw them mating, he was mostly mating on her wing lol ;D Thank you grimcoll. Didn't think they were! Nicola |

Hi BB. Thankyou for replying this is the females second time breeding. Her first time she produced 2 chicks. But this is the males first time. And they were mother and son (I didn't want them to pair up) so after hearing Barrie's story (He got blind chicks when he bred mother and son) I don't want to risk it again Nicola |

Maybe it wasn't, but you never know what happens down the line |
