In the last 2 months my single Tiel has laid 2 clutches of 5 eggs each. Eggs are boiled and she's been on them for approximately 2 months. Last 3 days I have taken her off the eggs in the morning and removed them from her cage which seemingly hasn't caused her any stress judging by her daytime behavior. However, around 8-8:30 pm/sunset she starts looking for them. She starts pecking, scratching, rearranging the floor of the cage which causes me to give eggs back to her bc besides nighttime brooding she seems to be much less hormonal and I worry if I keep her eggs from her she might become more hormonal and maybe start laying more eggs. I would like to prevent that: 10 eggs in 2 months is more than enough for her little body to endure.
Would it be ok if I continue taking her eggs and giving them back at night? I wouldn't if she shows disinterest. Any advice/suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
