I have yellow headed amazon and goffin cackatoo and how to know if it's male or female? And can they along?

I have a massive avairy but still wish I could enclose my entire house and yard lol. I have 2 lorikeets, 2 Alexandria rd, 2 Eclectus and a Macaw in the same space they all get along and interact with each other well, it’s my little piece of heaven and sanctuary all are different ages and I hand raised four of them myself. I also have a cockatoo and a corella in two different cages. I have read mixed things about cockatoos and Macaws although I won’t have them interact is it true the cockatoo dust can affect the Macaws respiratory? And how far apart is safe or is this mainly for enclosed indoor areas? Thanks

To Chase: Galahs and Sulphur-Crested Cockatoos flock together in Australia. Even if not the same species, I can see how the sulphur-crested would accept a bird she would normally flock with in the wild. Adding an African Grey is another matter. A Grey is the most intelligent parrot and demands a lot of attention. The Cockatoos are very social, and your sulphur-crested will likely hate the interloper. Might be worth it to expose your bird to a Grey at a bird shop to see the reaction.

I have a male & a female Princess Parrot in a large cage, but although they have been together from a young age, they have developed animosity. The female has started to over preen her tail & is destroying it. She does have a beating box & swing to escape from dominating male, do you suggest I try them in separate cages??

I have a 9 month old female goffin. Considering getting a second female same age from the same breeder. We have had her 2 months.

I have a sun conure and 6 budgies, though I try to avoid it, a lot of the time the Sun conure ends up sleeping in the budgies' cage. (it is really big) Their feelings towards each other are pretty mixed, most of the time they ignore each other, but sometimes Lyla (the conure) will lash out at them randomly. So I don't know what to do, normally when she lashes out at them, it is when she is just throwing a tantrum and needs to go in "time out" in her cage. So I don't know if this is normal, on here it says conures are pretty peaceable so IDK.

I have a female sulfur crested cockatoo called Triss, I am looking at having another bird an african grey male, they will NOT be in the same cage but will be in the same room. I have has Triss around another bird a Male gallah and have had no problems even when paying attention to the gallah, ( I was house sitting for a week ). The two never actually came into contact with each other and only one of the two was allowed out at a time on a large play gym. Everything seemed to go quite well, my girl showed no jelousy to the other bird at all provided she got equal time and attention and what he got she got. For reference She is 8 years old and the Gallah was two years old. Do you think her temprement will allow for the grey?
