He is really pretty, don't think I've seen a grey and white like that in the flesh or should I say feather.

He's really pretty.
And you're getting a green ringneck is that right?
They will look really pretty together with that grey and white and green together.

Aww congrats on the egg! You know not to remove it until she looses interest, right?

Why do I leave it in there, shall i put it back in?

I found this on the web..

it's best to leave the unfertile egg(s) in the nest/cage if the single female is interested because if you start removing eggs every time she lays one, the female will continue to lay until she has what she considers to be a full clutch of eggs, which is normally 6 eggs. If you keep removing eggs when laid, she'll keep laying. This can be harmful to the female because she is constantly laying eggs depleting nutrients (particularly calcium) from her body. She'll stop laying when she's ready (anywhere up to 6 eggs...anything more and she's double-clutching, which can lead to problems). She'll then sit/incubate the eggs until she realizes they aren't fertile (she'll know instinctively after a period of time that they aren't fertile) or she gets tired of sitting, and she'll abandon them herself. That's when you can remove the eggs. Some single females will eat their eggs because they are smart enough to know they won't hatch.

I have put the egg back into the cage, where she promptly pecked it and hissed at it!
