I have a pair of Dusky Lories. They have never had eggs but continue to mate in breeding season. They are fighting very often to the stage that the male injured her neck so bad that I had to remove him from the cage. He was trying to keep her in the nest & she was too scared to come out. Once I removed him she laid her very first egg the very next day. I then put the male back in with her, then she wouldn't even sit on the egg & wouldn't even go back in her nest. We removed the egg & found out it was clear.
