Jeet, from what I have read about Greys is they like to pick their own mate. This may sound silly, but just because they're paried up does not mean they will breed. They may bond though.

Jeet, we will have this thread moved to the African Grey forum for you. Now that you have introduced yourself you will want to post in the other forums to make it easier to find your threads!


Your birds are still a little young to start breeding. And since you did not have them dna gender tested you may not know what they are until one lays an egg. Now remember, we talked about helping to ease their nerves and helping them to get friendly with you. If they are male female and become breeders, you may never be able to handle them. You will want to watch to see if they become aggressive towards each other. If they are from the same clutch of birds, I would not allow them to breed.

If this is your first time with birds, let us all help you to learn how to keep them happy and healthy first. Once you start to understand them and what they need, you may realize that breeding isa big step and a lot of hard work.
