QuestionCan I seperate my two cockatiels that have been together for a couple years and have had some eggs and two babies together. The last couple times they had eggs they killed the babies though.
AnswerIf they have only been together for a couple of years and have killed the "last couple of clutches" (which makes me believe that they raised at least one clutch sucessfully)- you are probably breeding them too often.
Birds should be limited to one clutch a year (or two at the very, very most).
I would recommend leaving the birds together so that they don't get lonely (birds are extremely social creatures that need attention daily either from a bird companion or a human friend), but I would recomove the nest box (to give them a break), and I would recommend the following tips for discouraging them from breeding any more:

I hope this helps answer your questions.
