Nope, that's actually a good sign, it means that the pair is bonded.

How many eggs did they lay?

I thinks it's more temperature than it needed
Usually at night one has to sit outside right ?
Female stays in nest at night and male stay outside , right?

No, that's not a rule, some males will sleep out and some will sleep in, that's perfectly normal, don't worry, it will not affect the eggs.
