I have two quaker parrots a male and a female. The female for probaly the past month has laid an egg every other day and then she eats it i want to know why she does this and also how i can get her to stop laying eggs and stop eating them also she has gotten really vicous it has gotten so bad that i can barely pick her up because she attacks me and when i pick up the male who is starting to bite again to she flys at me and bites me how can i stop all this behavior

If they are laying eggs, they probably want to be left alone.  I would stop trying to handle them as it is just stressing them out and could, in some cases, cause them to break their eggs. 

As far as the sudden aggression - they are just protecting their eggs.
