Is my bird dying? She is sitting oddly on her eggs.?

My lovebird layed 3 eggs. she does not have a mate or a nest box. She is sitting on the eggs with her head on floor of the cage, her wings slightly unfurled and her butt slightly raised. She did not do this the last time she laid eggs. Should I take the eggs out? IS she eggbound?

are my birds about to mate?

lately my female bird has been making this high pitched squeeky sound everytime the male bird kisses her. i was wondering if she’s immitating a baby parakeet, to prepare him for fatherhood. also yesterday it looked like my female parakeet was sticking her butt in the air and he was standing close to her. are they going to mate soon?

we have a nesting box too, and my female parakeet is always in there, and recently my male parakeet stood by the opening but didnt go in.

How do you keep your cat from eating birds and squirls (EXCEPT FOR KEEPING THEM INSIDE)?

My cat, Pumkin (one of those odball orange cats that come in every litter), is eating too many small animals. So he gets (Shall i say it?) stuffed up the butt (Sorry every1). And im just woundering, since we have an abundance of small animals, how do you make them stop without watching them.

PS We let him outside without supervision he’s seven years old and hit by two cars, thats probably part of the problem. We are currently feeding him a food that will help so nothing about food.

why is my lovebird doing this?

i just got two love birds a few days ago, they are soppose to be ‘ male and female’ lutino female and normal is male. but the lady wasint for sure sure. so we just made a nesting box last night. and the yellow one went inside and starting makeing weird noises… now today both are insie the nest and she is spreading her wings and putting her tail feathers in the air sticking her butt up.
what does this mean? she is trying to mate? is she just stretching?

what kind of nesting material do budgies need?

my bird has all the symptoms of she may be pregnant but i never saw my birds mate and she has been sitting at the bottom of the cage with her butt puffed out a little so i will buy a nesting box for her but what kind of material is needed?

I’m new to lovebirds. How do I handle a nesty stressed lovebird?

I have 2 young lovebirds (a 10 month old and a 4 month old). I don’t know their genders but the older one seems to be acting very nesty and shredding obsessively. My older bird’s vent is also kinda swollen but I don’t see an egg bump near his butt.
I’m not interested in breeding at all. But I just I want to know how I can help ease my bird’s stress? Should I get a nest box?
They also have separate sleeping cages at night and shares a flight cage during the day.
They’ve been to an avian vet. He said they’re healthy. As for separating them, the younger bird is already attached to the other. They’ve been sharing the play cage for a month and it would only stress them out more. Thanks for your input
