I think you should keep the fighting birds separate.
It’s more important to keep them from being injured than it is to worry about them breeding.
Some cockatiels aren’t cut out to be parents.
My breeding pairs shared incubation duty and feeding.
From what I have read this is normal behavior for a cockatiel pair.
But the second clutch of babies the parents started mistreating the babies and plucking feathers out. I had to remove babies and not let the parents breed again.
