25+ African Grey still sitting on eggs

It has been over 3 wks now since Bertie surprised us by laying 3 eggs in quick succession. Have followed the vet's advice, careful to pet only head and neck, taken away all boxes etc. However she still sits on the eggs most of the time, on the bottom tray of her cage, and is not playful or even noisy!

She is eating and drinking,that is the only time she leaves the eggs, but then she rushes back to them and stays put for hours.

Should I be doing anything?

Thanks,

Isabella

Hello Isabella,

I can answer this one for you. As long as she is not still laying eggs, she will be fine.

Just let her sit on the eggs until she loses interest. Once she abandons the eggs, you can throw them away.
