After I catch an egg, everything stops

I tried to put move eggs after the last line of the function "check_catch", but it was going so fast and it only created two eggs I copied this code from a book, and it's an egg catcher, but after you catch your first egg, everything immediately stops. Does anyone know the problem? I think where the problem is. It is probably in the function "check_catch", but nothing i fix works
