Parakeets

I’ve got 2 keets, 1 blue, 1 white and both are making breeding movements on their toys/perches. Do i have 2 males?

Hi Elsa,

It does sound like you may have two males. The females will also mate with objects, but it is more common with the males. Since they are together and not mating with each other, I would guess both are males.

Thank you for asking Lafeber,

Brenda
