If that's the case then leave them as they are it happens with parrots kicking out sawdust/bedding... l was wondering with yours for the egg is on the side of the nestbox and the parents are beautiful may l add |

Yes this can happen and egg laying can spread over 2 days so best thing you can do is like you are doing..Nature will take it's course  |

Hi and welcome to the forum Finchperson
Bourkes would get along with zebra finches fine. All neophemas can be kept with finches as they are very placid and not an aggressive bird, i have had success with keeping turks,bourkes,elegants and scarlets with gouldians and tri coloured nuns in a planted aviary a few years ago and all got on fine.
