Hello all,
So my two pair of breeding gouldians decided to lay at the same time. Both laid for eggs and then started to sit for 2 days each pair is in their own breeding cage. On the third night both hens didn't go into the nest box I don't know why. Wasn't quite sure what to do couldn't transfer the eggs because neither hen was sitting that night. Oddly enough the next morning both cocks sat on the eggs and then in the evening the hens took over and have sat vigilantly ever since. What are the chances the eggs are still viable?

There's a chance that the eggs are still viable, especially if it was warmer weather. I'd wait a few more days if I were you; if your birds are okay with nest checks, then you could candle the eggs after that.
