Pls don ' t go to china pls . <| sep |> Yea , that ' s nesting behaviour . Mine goes in and out of it a couple times a year . She has 4 unfertilised eggs right now . I just let her sit on them for a couple weeks then take them away and she ' s good for another few months . I ' ve found it nearly impossible to stop her from laying once in a while . If I keep preventing her from going into dark spaces and gathering nesting material she sometimes snaps out of it , but if we aren ' t with her constantly she ' ll eventually make a nest again . Birds parrots at least usually nest when they have lots of food and feel secure , unfortunately that ' s 247 for a pet parrot Sorry to hear about your bird , though . But I ' m really curious what happened to it .
