well my cockatiel laid 7 eggs, and well everything was fine until yesterday..they would take turns sitting on the eggs, and they would even sit on them together..but all of a sudden yesterday the male cockateil started being really aggresive towards the female.. he keeps on chasing her around the cage n biting her....and he wont let her get close to the nest....should i seperate him from her and put him on another cage?

This is not normal breeding behavior. Remove him from the cage, he will seriously injur her and possibly kill the chicks if the eggs hatch.
Do not let them breed again.

yeah girl I have a cockatiel! I have had it for over 2 years. I totaly think you should seperate the male because he will probabbly hurt her. Once the eggs hatch if they are fertile, put the male back in with the female and give it a week and if he is still agressive, see a vet!!!
p.s. check the library for books on cockatiels and see if it says anything about their behavior during birdie birth!!! good luck girlee girl!!!

some birds could be very territory the place they don;t choose the different chicken the place they stay at and if it extremely is the case he ought to in all probability kill her,attempt putting him in a distinctive room with a sparkling cage this might help with him being territorially for you have took him out of his territory and slowly introduce them with their cage area by area

Call a bird store and find out for sure, or another bird breeder.
