My other bird coco well she is acts even worse she does not act aggressive only i was holding her she doesn't let me come near or close to her. When we got her she had her wings cut off but we noticed that she can still fly and whenever she does she falls and hurts herself.. The injuries are still there. And I am concerned about them because its been a year and they haven't mated yet. And the male attacks her but he doesn't hit her or bite her he like shouts at her. I need help with them..Thanks

Thanks for reaching out about Coco. Not all birds get along, and therefore will not always mate. How certain are you that you have a male and female? Many species of parrot are monomorphic, meaning you can not visually determine sex, and a blood sample needs to be taken. Birds who are ill will often not breed also, so a veterinary visit is recommended if any indications of sickness (lethargy, decreased appetite, being fluffed, etc.) are present. Good luck.
