3 weeks (21 days) is average. But it partly depends on incubation habits of the parents, can be a few more or less days.

It's said that if the eggs haven't hatched after 30 days then they won't; they're dudds. You should wait until the hen gives up on them, though, before assuming that or trying to remove the unhatched egg(s). Typically the hen will decide not to bother incubating if they haven't hatched after about 40 days.

I suggest you get some good books, from the library if you don't want to spend money, about lovebirds' breeding habits and special needs when rearing young. They do need special care at this time.

I think if they hadn't hatched after at least 4 or 5 weeks, I don't think they will. But just to make sure I'd check out you local library.

Don't do anything. Just make sure that the parents have plenty of food and water and add some egg suplement (found in pet stores or on the internet) to the food.

My female lovebird have laid an egg but the male has killed it.. Then after 5 days she laid another egg so first we separated the male in another cage beside the female's cage but he has gone crazy so I returned the male and I grabbed the egg and put it in a warm box with cotton on it.. Will the egg be safe and will it hatch??..
With regards;
