egg bound

Hello! My cockatiel Tea just got home from the vet. She was egg bound and had the egg removed. I’m worried about her because her follow up papers say to look out for any straining, and she has been straining every 3-5 minutes since she’s been home, and occasionally making small chirps or squeaks...

hi everyone, I have two budgies I've had them for a year and a half and the female one laid an egg either the night before yesterday or yesterday morning and she hasn't laid another egg since and now I come back home to find brown poop in their cage. I don't know if it's the female or the male...
