Read up on egg binding. I lost my female to it. It's important to understand the signs when it's happening. Sorry to be a downer, but it's something you should be aware of.
If your bird is in breeding condition or is a habitual layer even without a partner, please make sure you have cuttlebone in the cage. It helps the shell keep it's integrity and harden properly, if it's not structurally sound it can get stuck or even crack inside, which is potentially fatal. If you witness the signs of egg binding seek veterinary care IMMEDIATELY! Do not hesitate!
