Building a second nest

Recommended Posts

I have two zebra finches in a very large cage. There has been two nesting baskets in the cage for awhile. This is the first time I have had birds and birds that have laid eggs. Last week they filled up one nest with material and the female laid two eggs. Both male and female have been sitting on eggs. 3 days ago they started to build another nest in a different nest basket, they both have been spending time in there also. My question is should I be concerned? Should I remove the second one? Will they lay eggs in both nests and will eggs hatch from them both? Will they take care of them? Thank you so much for any info that anyone can give me.
