If you have another cage you can place them both in there for a couple of days as this is nuetral territory so he should not fight with her.

Also before putting a new bird in with your old one they should be kept seperate for about a week this is the quarantine period to keep on eye on the new bird for any signs off illness or disease it also helps them become used to each other as they can see through the bars and will sing and call to each other.

After this time they can be place together and watched if he is drawing blood from fighting remove her as some males will not take to an intruder wether it be male or female.

Allow them to fly around a room that is safe from anything they can hurt themselves on this is also a good way to introduce your birds to each other.

if you would like more advice you can email me.
