Questionmy female cocketiel has layed three eggs. i'm not sure when she had them, shes not sitting on them, and i don't know if they're fertile. There is also a male in the cage and i have seen them breeding. how do i know if they're fertile and why isn't she or he sitting on them?
AnswerHello,
You can find out of they are fertile by placing them over a flashlight in the dark...(make sure the flashlight is on though.)
Cockatiels chose if they want to raise a family, if your birds will not sit on them, just crack them and throw them away.
Hope this helps!
