Hello and thank you for alowing me to join. i have a pair of gcc,s the female is showing readiness to breed but male doesnt seem interested,they preen,sleep and feed each other..is it possible i have a gay male...haha

Very possible. Or they just might not be each other's 'type'!
Do you want to breed them? Do you have help/experience? What were you thinking of doing with the babies?
Good for ypu for reaching out for help. GCCs are just the best!

if they do breed then i would keep them all.....i love parrots,we have 5 at present...2 conures and 3 celestial parrotlets which 2 of are now sitting eggs

back to the pair of conures....they do everything together and the hen does everything to entice him to breed....its quite funny to watch....she pushes her rear to him and he walks away....so funny

Welcome to the forums, thanks for joining! At the least the pair seems bonded, the first step towards an inclination to breed. Please carefully consider whether to breed, as it is an awesome responsibility.

Do you know the age of both, and especially the male? It is possible he is young and needs to mature a bit. Many pairs will wait until they have the "ideal" environment to set up a family. Always a mystery, but feeling safe with proper nutrition is a first step.
