Shine a bright light on the end of each egg. If they are infertile, they will be clear/yellow. If fertile, they will either show some red (blood) or be completely dark (developing chick). It is not unheard of that a single female can lay 10 eggs, but not common either.
Make sure that she has pleanty of calcium, she should be pretty well depleated after that! If they are fertile, make sure you know how to handfeed and have a brooder ready. That is a lot of chicks!

The Eggs " if White In Colour " Will Become a Darker Colour If They Are Fertile. Since You Have 2 Birds And Ten Eggs.....Not Hatched After 2 Weeks > It Means That Your Budgies Are Both Females.

the two your eggs at the instant are not fertile or the mum and dad did no longer incubate them surprising. especially cases even nevertheless you have a woman and male and that they mate, it might no longer have taken and the female will nonetheless lay eggs, even and not using a male she will lay eggs. If it became their first time mating, possibly it only did no longer artwork.
