Why would a Pigeon abandon her eggs?

Almost two weeks back a Pigeon built a nest on a floor corner of our balcony between some big pebbles. As far as I know that they take around 14-18 days to hatch. She was always laying on top of the two egs since then as expected.

Three days back she just left the eggs unhatched for no obvious reason! I am not sure what to do from there? what if they hatch? would another Pigeon feed them? did she felt they are dead for some reason and left? when should i through them away?

My Leapord Gecko layed an egg! What do I do to care for and incubate the egg?

Thanks!
She isn’t alone X_X i wouldn’t ask the question if she was..

Reptile eggs dented?

I was in a pet store last week and they were incubating some eggs in a deli cup. I’ve never incudated before but from what I noticed they were in a tightly sealed deli cup with no air holes, is this ok? Also, all the eggs were pretty dented. I don’t know what lizard they’re from but they were the size or a robins egg(the bird) maybe a tiny bit smaller. Are dented eggs always bad? Is it normal for a whole clutch to be dented? Please provide me with some information regarding eggs and dents. What can cause this? And can anything be done to try saving them?

cockatiel with eggs problem?

Ok here is the scoop about 4-6 months ago my single female cockatiel laid about 3 eggs. So I called the breeder that I got her from, and she said that i should introduce a male to her. So I brought a male home with me. Since then over a 4-6 months period she has laid atleast 3 dozen of eggs. Eventually they get holes in them so I pitch them. Well today she had an egg stuck to her, I thoguht she was egg bound. But that wasn’t the case the egg had a hole in and the yolk suck to her. Well I have beome verry worried so I removed the eggs and the hatchin box. Both male and female sit on the eggs but they never hatch. What should I do? SHould I give her eggs back and lay them on the floor o the cage? I want her to stop laying. Both the male and feamle have became very mean, tey use to be sweethearts and tame. Both are hosued together, please only serious ppl reply.
I have been giving her pleanty of calcium. I just want her to stop laying eggs. I jsut chcked he 7 eggs egs she ahs currently they are all dried up.

When should I start on this?

I’ve read that chickens don’t need to be feed the first two days after they’re born. But is ok to give them water also when should they fed for the first time?

I have a one week old possibly fertile egg right at the moment and I wanted to know if it possibly hatches when should feed the chick.
