I have umm.. an embarrassing question… I have about 6 mo old 2 budgies (brothers), and one of them is extremely friendly with my other birds, but he is now trying to mate with everything that flies! :11: He was first in love with my lovie, and now he adores Parry, my gcc, who we think is male. He is really a big heart and very loving little fellow. Franky (the budgie) mates with the lovie several times a day (she seems to enjoy that, but it doesn't seem right to me) and gets really annoying around Parry, who is wearing a collar and bandage for his injured toe.
It's all kinda funny, but I think Franky really needs a mate. Or is this behavior just hormonal and will pass with time? if I get a new budgie she'd be on a quarantine for a month anyway. None of my other birds have problems like that. The other budgie is kinda observer type…
I hate to have a breeding situation at home, but the poor 'lover' really needs a mate IMHO. What do you think?
