Egg production is a function of the amount of light a bird receives. If you do not have a male who is mating with your female the eggs will be infertile. You can read here about egg production in cockatiels http://my3tiels.tripod.com/id14.html http://www.vin.com/VINDBPub/SearchPB/Proceedings/PR05000/PR00352.htm Make sure she is getting enough calcium in her diet as egg formation can deplete a bird badly. If she does have a mate make sure there is an appropriate nest box for egg laying. Hope this helps you!
