A lot of suns in your house? Yikes! If you're not deaf now, you will be! lol

I'm afraid I can't tell you about the breeding specifics, I made a promise to myself not to mention politics, religion or bird breeding here lol. But, I will suggest the following information: If you have the option, you might seek out breeders, of any parrot type in your area, if there are any. Hands on advice and experience is a lot better than a forum, which can give you mixed results at best. If you can't find any local breeders to mentor you, you might consider a zoo. Ask to speak to the avian specialist and I would bet they'd be more than happy to talk to you about it. Get books, books, books on the subject and get knowledgeable on both the species and rearing birds before you contemplate starting a program of breeding. Lastly, get to know your birds well before you get the breeding bug. Enjoy them for a year or two, understand their quirks, habits and honestly, if you've just bought them... see if they're REALLY for you.

G'luck!
