Broken Budgie eggs?

23 9:41:39

Question
I have a pair of budgies, i got them from a friend so i don't know their ages approximately between 1 and 3 years old. They have never had a nesting box so have never bred.They now have one. Yesterday i found a broken egg on the floor of their aviary and today i found another. What does this mean?

Answer
Becky,

Not sure what meaning you are looking for, basically it just means that the hen is laying eggs and somehow they are getting broken. It could be very possible that they are breaking the eggs themselves just as inexperienced "parents". Give them time, they may come around for you.
