Well, she laid an egg on you because she feels comfortable with you and she needed that egg leaving her body.

If she does not have any contact with a male partner, then you can throw it to trash (there's no baby bird inside).

Some females lay eggs without a male partner, but these eggs are not fertilized. If you notice she lays eggs too often, then you could ask an avian vet how to make her stop before she looses too much calcium and to avoid dystocia.

Thank you! She has a partner and I’ve seen them engage way too much but I’m so sure that it’s a fertile egg. I’m worried that she’ll miss the egg

Have you candled the egg? If you see veins then it's fertile.
Also throwing an egg away if a female bird cares about it can be dangerous, it could cause them to lay more eggs to compensate.

Well, if she is not interested on that egg, she might know there is nothing alive inside.
But you could buy or make a new nest (like a closed box with only one entrance) and put it in the couple's favorite quiet place to enjoy themselves. She may be laying more eggs soon in her nest and become a bit more "mysterious".

There’s no veins ! That’s what I’m worried about. I’ve seen her regurgitate for the egg

Then, no baby inside. I'm sorry.
She may be laying more eggs, so she will need a nest (high, in a quiet place) quickly. But first, when the couple is busy and not watching you, disappear that dead egg.

Do they have a nest box? If so I would place the egg in there or if not on the cage floor.

She certainly loves you! What a compliment.

How many days old was the egg when you candled it? It takes some days for the veins and then embryo to be visible. When just laid, the egg has only a yolk and white visible just like an unfertilized chicken egg.

Just wanted to let you know that at the beginning of development a new, fertilized egg looks the same as a sterile egg.

I’ve done that! They both love to sit in it. She laid 2 eggs and cracked both of them and now she’s flapping her wings and making noises 24/7 I’ll make a post about it soon!

It might be a good idea to let them keep their nest longer, the couple will decide the right time to enlarge the family. If the female cracks or takes any egg out of the nest, then it's considered "garbage" (by her).
