Infertile eggs

I'm so disappointed, my first 2 budgie eggs are infertile and it looks like they could all be the same. I have 5 so far.

hope you are wrong and at least one of them is!

Aww, that's a shame. Hope the others are fertile x

Oh no Wendy!

But now she knows what to do, maybe you'll get some fertile ones soon. x

They only take 18 days to hatch so can be candled on day 4 day 6 is better for the non expert. The 1st egg is 8 days and the second is 6 days old egg 3 is 4 days old and doesn't look fertile either.
I don't think Tweedle has mated with her, so none of the eggs will be fertile. I will leave her until she has finished her clutch and they are all past their hatch date and then remove the eggs. Maybe they will be successful next time round.
