Moving Zebra Finch's Egg?

Moving Zebra Finch's Egg - finches on nest boxI have two lovely zebra finches that have laid an egg in their seed bowl. I wasn't sure what to do so I used tongs to move it into a straw nest filled with hay. After researching I realised that it would of been best to not interfere with their eggs and nest. Will they abandon the eggs? Will they lay more in the food bowl or not lay eggs again at all? I'm quite worried and feel bad about moving it.

I don't think you have any thing to worry about, mother bird will find the egg no matter where you put it, and it is a myth that the mother will not touch the egg after it has been moved.

Great photo of the nest and egg !!!

The mother will sit on this and all other eggs after she lays the last egg.
