okay.. ever since i took my birds home 5 [or 6?] months ago, they had always been in the same cage. i thought that since they were still very young, that i wouldnt have to worry about them mating.
i had planned to get a bigger cage, one with a separater, later when i had the money. i couldnt afford it at the time i got my babies.
well.. i was wrong. they started mating when they turned 7 months old. i wasnt too worried about her laying any eggs because my female is still so young. what i was really worried about was if they would start to bond because of their newfound "intimacy".
but they didnt show any of the signs of being bonded.
they didnt throw up in front of each other.. they didnt really groom each other.. they didnt always stay around each other...
infact, they always fought [except when they wanted to be intimate].
well, i finally got that cage with the separater. they've been in it for about 3 weeks now.. but now they're starting to lose their feathers!
