I have a parakeet and I think there is something special you can by them. But I'm not sure. My advice for you is to go to Petco or Petsmart and ask. They know everything! They can tell you anything you want to know. Or you can look for some other pet communtiy online to ask. Sorry I couldn't help much because my parakeets never had eggs. Good Luck and I'd love to see pics of the new babies.
