Conure troubles, son trying to mate with mother?

Hey, I have 3 conures, one is a male(Cheeto) the other a female(Chappie) and the last one is their son(Babe) who came into the world by accident. You see, when I got Chappie and Cheeto, both of their birth certificates stated that they were both males, but a few months later Chappie had laid an egg and that egg hatched into Babe.

Ever since then, I've been overly observant of their behaviors and I am certain that Babe is a male as well and I think he's trying to mate with his mother.

I don't know what to do, I don't want to have to give any of them up, I allow all three of them to have free range in my room since I am still in the process of making a bigger cage for them, and I don't want to put them in separate cages because we simply do not have the space in our current house.

I would highly appreciate it if anyone has any advice or ideas as to what I should do. Thank you.

Don't provide nests.

If eggs are laid remove them and replace with dummy eggs. Don't allow them to hatch.
