It's not possible to have constant temperature without incubator, egg rotation as well in some cases. You also don't know if the eggs are fertile. Separate the pair, and later after sometime, introduce the cock to another hen. ok.. she laid 3rd egg today on the floor of the cage.. I didn't disturb and it also didn't come closer.... will check once i'm back to home Tell me this... assuming that she lays couple of more eggs on the floor of the cage itself... do you think there is a possibility of she incubating and eggs getting hatched? (with an assumption that she wont break those or eat her eggs) If a hen lays on cage floor despite having a nest box and breeding setup, I won't expect much from her.

I saw the same pot being used as a nest box in another set up but it was suspended. Do you think the hen might want the pot to be higher up?

Do you think the hen might want the pot to be higher up? I don't think that's the case here. But when in doubt, one can change the nest box location. Anyways, the nest box has to be in the best possible location from the start. These mud pots are not good for budgie breeding.
