Answer
Hi again, Omar.  

You must have asked your second question of someone else because this is the first time I've seen this question.  There are several people on this site that answer questions...you must have directed your question to someone else.

Parrots usually mate for life with 1 bird, so if your female was previously paired up with another male, she may not be receptive to the new male.

Are you sure you have a male/female pair?  If you have 2 birds of the same sex, they won't pair-bond.  

Just because we put 2 birds together, this doesn't necessarily mean they will get along and pair-bond in order to produce offspring.  Some birds just don't get along with a bird we pair them up with.  Evidently, these 2 birds aren't compatible with each other (or they are the same sex).

Expertise

I`ve been raising/breeding/handfeeding/selling parrots for over 20 years (parakeets/budgies, cockatiels, 6 subspecies of conures, parrotlets, amazons, lovebirds, etc.). I've been published in "Budgies" and "Cockatiels" offered by Bow Tie Productions, and have written avian articles for publication in England. I can provide advice in raising healthy birds, handfeeding/weaning babies, some health problems, nail/beak/wing clipping, general husbandry, etc. I also have experience with racing/showing homing pigeons. I cannot diagnose specific illness over this website. If you suspect your bird is ill or if you have an emergency, contact a certified avian veterinarian or emergency pet clinic ASAP.

Experience

Over 20 years breeding/raising/handfeeding/selling 15 different species of parrots.
