Breeding Parakeet Cage
Inter racial breeding? Can a canary be bred to a parakeet?
I own a female canary and a male parakeet. They share the sane cage and the male keet constantly makes sexual advances toward the beautiful female canary but she doesnt want any part of it. Lately the keep has turned aggresive. Would they ever mate? What kind of bird would their babies be?.
I meant to say species cross-breeding
Cararies and Parakeets are from totally different families and could never produce offspring. Parakeets are from the family Psittacidae and Canaries are from the family Fringillidae. Sometimes interbreeding can occur between species in the same family, especially if the birds are closely related. For instance, Canaries can interbreed with Red Siskins.
I would strongly suggest seperating the birds. Canaries are not social and she would prefer being alone. The fact that the parakeet is getting agressive is not good. He could possibly injure her.
