How old do parakeets have to be before you can start hand-feeding them?

I am going to have a few when my bird’s eggs hatch and I’ve decided to take the resposibility of hand-feeding them myself. But I’m not sure how long to wait.

I have a parakeet that has laid two eggs She is laying on them and everything is going good,?

I also have 3 other parakeets. One is the dad and the other two, which one is a female and the other a male. The momma bird has a nesting box that the eggs are in that is attached to the outside of the cage. When the babies hatch is there anything special I need to do for them and also should I take out the other two birds? I have not found a website that answers any of these questions.

My parakeet (Sweetie) has a lump on her back by her tail. Is she trying to pass an egg?

Is she trying to pass an egg or is there something else wrong, or nothing at all. She is with two other parakeets one being a male and the other a female. I took the other female out and put her in another cage that I have because the nesting box is in the main cage. I saw her going in and out of it this morning, mostly coming out when the other female would peak in which is why I separated her. I read that putting her in a humid place would be nice, which would mean I need to switch her with the other female. Although, I don’t know what a bird looks like that is trying to pass an egg if it is that. Any suggestions would be sooo helpful. Thank you very much.

What nesting matererials should I use?

Not to long ago, my dad and I built a good sized nesting box for my parakeets (budgies), but we didn’t have a tool thing to make and indent in the bottom, so since I already have the box in the cage and my birds are checking it out, I was wondering what I could but in the bottom, because I’m worried about splayed legs and the eggs rolling around everywhere.

I’m to lazy at the moment to look online or in a book, so….please help.

And, yes, in case some of you are wondering, my birds are old enough to be breeding.

So, what, cedar chips or something? Uggghhh, I have no clue.
yeah, but, basically what im saying is that i dont have in indention in my box.
