I first started with 2 parakeets, one flew away so we got her 3 more friends, but the females started attacking each other and blood was involved. This also happened with the males they were fighting but no blood. I separated the birds, one male one female to all my birds but then they started breeding too much, i now have 20 PARAKEETS! this is really becoming a problem i tried to sell the birds but people think they make too much of a mess and i tried to give some away but was only able to give 2 away but then they had 5 more babies which brought me to 20. please tell me what i can do to calm them down a bit, at first there was no nesting box but then both females laid eggs on the bottom of the cage so i bought them a log nest and a nesting box and one liked the wood box while the other preferred the log nest. They haven't stopped breeding,i have tried to move their cages around in different spots but NO LUCK!
