Last time my lovie had eggs, she had sat on her eggs for maybe two months and wouldn't get off, so I took them out and the nest too. She's had them again, a little too soon (6 of them), they should've hatched by now, but they haven't hatched yet and it's been more than a month (hatched nov 25 ish). Last batch a few weren't sterile, but DIS. This time I kept the humidity above 60 and gave a cuttlebone and egg shell, and lots of veggies and other. How long should I wait till it's been too long for her to be in the nest. Will she ever come out for good of her own free will? I don't want to take the eggs again and have her lay eggs again to replace them. What should I do? Also does the stuff I feed my birds need to be organic/pesticide-free?

Hi, I can not comment on the length of time in the nest box, but I do give my birds organic food whenever possible. Good luck.
