How long does it take for her to have her first egg?

I have two parakeets one male one female. My parakeet is 5 years old. I seperated the male because he is often abusive and I assumed he would harm her during this process. But he is in the same room. Just in a different cage. When I checked my parakeet about 2 minutes ago… I noticed she was in her large food tray. Yesterday I had seen her kick half the food out to make room. I previously thought she was sick but now I think she is laying her eggs. How long should her first egg take to come out? And how long should it be till i worry about egg binding?
So I should check on her? Wouldn’t that just scare her?

How long should it take a budgie to lay an egg? I think my bird might be egg bound.?

I’m worried that my female parakeet, Sprite (there are alot of birds named Sprite for some reason o.O), is egg bound. She’s about four years old and she’s usually very chunky. She started behaving strangely about a week ago. She was under weight (she has lost all her extra fat and she’s thinner than any of my other birds now) and she stayed on the floor of her cage excessively. I examined her and put her into a seperate cage (after removing the grate from the floor) with a heating pad under it for a few days. I usually keep her in the same cage with my other parakeets. I have four males and two females. She still can perch but she stays puffed up on the floor alot. She also eats and drinks regularly. I noticed earlier that she had a marble sized lump near her vent. I would assume that’s an egg. Apparantly egg binding is obvious. I think she’s alright if it’s supposed to take a few hours to get an egg out. I’m pretty damn sure laying an egg isn’t one of those things that happens in the blink of an eye. I’m just trying to make sure this is normal for my bird. Thanks for reading/answering this.

How long does it take for a parakeet to lay an egg?

Red Crowned Parakeet – A LONG WAY FROM HOME !

They are only found living wild in New Zealand. However I found this one sitting on my bird feeder thousands of miles away, here in Wolverhampton…in the UK !

Due to stress my parakeet pulled most of its feathers. How long does it take for them to grow back?

I just got a new parakeet and it pulled its tail, chest, and back feathers out. He still has feather on his head and wings. He is still very healthy and playful. He stopped pulling once I bought him some parakeets to share the cage with. How long will Kojack (that what I named him because he is now bald) to grow his feathers back?
Thanks for the replies. I am sorry to say, but the bird broke its leg in the cage and later died.
