are my parakeets(budgies) going to mate?

umm i recently just modified my birds cage and added a nesting box to the side the next day i noticed my birds playing with the box like chewing at the hole and stuff. the day after that i noticed they go inside of it. I had some fluff in their box incase she lays eggs but they took it out will they mate? i live in northern hemisphere and its pretty much spring already my girl budgie and boy budgie are mature enough and when the girl is inside the box i guess the boy would come and share food with her you know when it appears they kiss. so i dont know if they’re going to mate are they?

Attaching Cockatiel’s Nest Box To The Side Of Cage?

Dear Cockatiel Breeders,

I was looking on how I could put our Cockatiel’s nest box so that they could go inside of it and outside at night, and I found a video ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=odm4xJfNAxY&feature=related ) that had a very interesting way they put their Cockatiel’s nest box.

The position we had and still currently have it is on the top of the cage. It is tied down and can not harm any of the bird(s) inside of it. But the problem is that we close the cage at night, so Grey Grey (female) can’t get into the nest box at night, and when she is in it she can’t get to the food without leaving the nest, which could probably kill the babies if she is gone for too long.

I wanted to fit in inside the cage, but there wouldn’t be enough room for the Cocktiels themselves!

This breeder had her nest box in a very interesting way: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=odm4xJfNAxY&feature=related And I was wondering would the rough edges from the cut bars hurt the birds if they tried to get in/out of the nest box and cut them?

Or would it be okay if I put it that way? We haven’t done it yet, and Grey Grey is nearing the day she’ll lay her eggs. Would this be okay, or should I put it a different way?

Any suggestions, comments, or answer will be greatly appreciated!

Snake or Bird?

I would like something to pet and I don’t want it to bite that much. I might not play with it every day but I don’t want it to squrim or try to run away from me when I play with it. What type of snake or bird should I get? It has to be in a reasonable price. The down side with the snake is that I have to feed it mice, but some of them eat crickets. The downside with the bird is that it makes too much noise, and I think it’ll be harder to play with and pet.

Help?

Do you have to recycle the dead if a will specifies this?

My nan who recently passed over onto the other side has caused uproar in the family by insisting, in her will, that her body is recycled.Not organ donation, which wouldnt be so bad,but something quite macabre.She has left implicit instructions that we feed her to the creatures at the local Bird of Prey park.This is causing our family great distress.She was 83 when she died-just in case that helps.
