Help! How can I fit two nesting boxes in one cage?

I have 1 male and 2 female parakeets in one 3-bird cage. I have recently figured out that my two females are both pregnant. I need two nesting boxes, and I can only fit one in the cage. I have another 1-bird cage, but it won’t fit a nesting box probably. Any suggestions on questions or on the baby’s? This is my first time with a pregnant parakeet!

Can you mix chickens and parakeets/love birds?

We have just finished building our chicken coop, and the outside run is huge and completely secure. I was wondering if I could put a few parakeets or lovebirds in with my chickens, obviously with their own nesting boxes, food source, perches, etc. Would they harass each other? Would they eat each others food and cause a problem? Does anyone know of this ever being done? By the way, I live in Arizona so the weather isn’t a problem. Thanks.

Why wont birds use my feeders or nesting boxes?

I have feeders with seed,fat and peanuts 6ft on a garage wall to avoid cats. Ground feeders ie starlings and blackbirds visit but no one visits the feeders. A blue tit visited and left immediately on looking and has not returned. They are checked daily that they are fresh. My sister has lots visiting her garden up the road. What can I do to encourage them into mine?

Hi! Is it possible to breed 2 cockatiles and 2 parakeets in a very large cage?

It’s almost a flight cage. I’m going to get the birds today or tomorrow and I already have the cage. I was going to put the nesting boxes in the far corner. Anways, they should get along right. Thanks for advice.
