She probably wanted those feathers for a phantom nest. She'll probably lay a few more eggs since her system is programmed to do so right now.
After all the eggs have been layed, gradually reduce daylight hours to about 10. Move her cage to a different part of the room or even to a different room. Rearrange the toys and perches in her cage. If you're petting her, stop. That is sexually stimulating. If you gave her a nestbox, remove it after the egglaying has been completed.

Sorry. I wasn't trying to make a point.
 My computer froze up and I kept hitting "save."
