I have a pair of two cockatiels, they seem to be bonded, they preen eachother and are always in range of eachother, and don’t leave others side But the male masturbates on pillows and random objects around the house and will ignore the female when she is crouching for him to mount her, but he just sits and stares at her. Then the female starts to get very agitated and chase him out the nest. Then 5 minutes later she is biting him so he will preen her and give her attention. Then she will crouch again for him, to be ignored again. Then maybe 10 minutes the male will decide to try mount her but it’s to late: as she stopped crouching Ive never experienced this with any other cockatiels I’ve had.
Does anyone understand what is going on ?

Thankyou x

They might be too young. How old are they?
