I was wondering if someone could give me a little advice with my 2 little finches :?:

Since i have had my finches they have always shared their nest with each other, but...

My female has laid 3 eggs over the past 2 days and it seems the male wont let her in the nest, every time she try's to go in he becomes aggressive towards her and wont let her in.. He's ok in the cage it self most of the time but on the odd occasion with chase her around, i'm not sure if hes trying to do the deed or just chasing her off to keep her out of the nest. Is this normal behaviour :?:
