The red nostrils are not because of breeding condition, Liz. They are a symptom of something going on. Now, it could be something as simple as exertion from flying around a lot but it can also be due to excessive scratching caused by a deficiency of betacarotene in their diet, an upper respiratory infection or irritation from too many particles in the air they breathe so, if I were you, I would review the following:
- is there good air circulation in the room or do you have a good, large air purifier in there?
- are they getting enough betacarotene [dark leafy greens, yellow and orange veggies and fruits]?
- are they sneezing or fluffed up? tail bob?
