hi i have 2 budgies ones femal the other male is it possible they may never mate???

Answer
Hi, Rebekah,

I found your question(s) in the question pool this morning. Evidently, the person you sent your question(s) to originally could not answer for some reason.

Yes, it's possible they may never mate. If you don't want them to mate, don't install any nesting box and keep available light down to 10-12 hours per day, 8-10 hours if necessary. However, they may still mate and produce eggs on the cage bottom. It just depends on the birds and their hormones. With breeding season just around the corner, they may breed.
