Mr Romeo Is Driving Me Up the Wall

[whitewing607]

I have had Cockatiels for many years and the male is breeding the 3 females too much over the past year. I changed his cage and bought a new cage for him so he can be separated from the females if he bothers the one female too much since I could not get her too stop laying eggs last year. She is looking bedragled and stressed too my eye and have been taking good care of her so she recovers. Poor cockatiels. The two breeding tiels have been riping out there feather too, not sure if this has anything too do with the breeding thing or not.

How does a person get the fids too be less amorous?

Rearranged their cage and bought new perches and made some toys however the toy parts are old and came out of my actic and they appear too hate them now so i took them away just in case it started a respitory problem or something along those lines.

You should definitely put him in a separate cage, maybe in a separate room so he isn't trying to pace the cage to get out to them. Your females can get hurt or even die from that. Plus, aside from the physical harm they are experiencing, they can also become egg bound. And laying eggs that frequently depletes their body of essential vitamins (per my Avian vet). Good luck.

Thanks I did have them separated and he found a way into their cage and was hurting her and had her forced into a seed dish too breed her, poor little Peanut.
