budgie question for a mate
Budgie eggs will hatch after a full 18 days. I had Budgie's many years ago. It was common for the eggs to hatch over 2 or 3 days. It wasn't a problem for a good breeding pair, they all got fed.worm wrote: Sun Nov 03, 2024 9:50 pm birds sat and 9 eggs full only one out and 4 had holes chipping and never made it out others to chip any day

Sadies Lofts home of decent birds just a useless loft manager, and now a confirmed loser but proud 
he thought the hen sitting to tight and heat is drying the membrane out once exposed to the air might be the problem so next question is how often would you spray them as hatchings might be 5/6 days from first to last apart

Normally if a hen sits to tight the opposite happens. The hen will sweat, causing moisture. This is what happens with pigeons, in some cases the egg can stick to the hen and actually be carried out of the nest when the hen leaves.worm wrote: Mon Nov 04, 2024 12:21 pm he thought the hen sitting to tight and heat is drying the membrane out once exposed to the air might be the problem so next question is how often would you spray them as hatchings might be 5/6 days from first to last apart
As for spaying it should not be needed more than a couple of times.
