Yes I rearrange the cage often.
How to discourage laying eggs
One of my budgies maxi had an egg laying cycle about a month ago and now it has started again. She doesn't produce any fertile eggs and gives eggs without mating. Is this normal for her health. By God's grace she is very healthy but is this monthly egg laying healthy for her in the long term? And for context I haven't put any nest making things in the cage.

Thanks for the advice, I will look into it. And yes the reason why I started this discussion was because of the egg binding problem only.Because I'm terrified of chronic egg laying or possible egg binding, I've replaced even ten larger food dishes, that might be seen as a nesting area, with small covered dishes.

The small size only allows her little head to fit in. Plus the cover prevents poops from above from dropping in!
I have 4 and they are mixed. I have separated the males from the females
Yes she is doing fine now and has stopped laying eggs. I followed your advice of removing the eggs as soon as she laid them so that she doesn't sit on them.I'm glad you have them separated by gender.
Do you have the males' cage in a different room from the females?
How is Maxi doing now?
Has she laid any additional eggs?
