I've added a turquoise parrot, I think three is enough birds for the aviary I have.
Thanks for your comments.

Looks nice. Just be careful the male Turq doesn't cross with the hen blue scarlet.

Neophemas will cross with other neophemas, so they should not be housed together. He is a beautiful bird, seperate them and get him his own mate.

I was told the blue scarlet is a young male, but now I'm not too sure. I was wondering as he doesn't have a black beak like the other scarlet.

if there is no intention to breed to stop crossing isnt it as easy as not giving them any nest box?

If its a male its very young - so young in fact that it couldn't be accurately sexed. I reckon its a hen.
