Hi everybody,

My female lovebird, Melon, started laying eggs for the first time about 1 month ago. She did not have a mate up until then so these eggs are not going to hatch. At first, I had figured that after a certain amount of time she would give up on these eggs hatching, but that doesn't appear to be the case. She is still spending the majority of her day sitting on them and moving them around in her nest. I don't know what to do. On the one hand, I don't want to take the eggs away from her, but on the other hand I don't want her to spend all day sitting on eggs that aren't going to hatch. Does anyone have any advice for me? Will she eventually give up on these eggs herself or do I need to remove them for her?

Thanks in advance!
