She has bonded with the bird. However it can be interrupted and you can take the place of the bird with her if you separate to a room where the calls won't be heard to well, Spend allot of time with her I mean after coming home take her out and put her on your shoulder or be in the same room with her only, talking to her and trying to get her on your shoulder or a lamp, a perch of some sort, if she isn't happy to sit on you yet, near where your working or reading.Work with her like this every day and she will become very attached to you. You need to do that process with each one, isolate, give attention, then add to your flock and continue attention to all. Then you will have a very social group. Good luck!

That coo sound is a mating call. Take the bird that loves you out of that cage. Let her have a bird-buddie for right now. Later get to know her.
I would turn off the lights early. If she has direct daylight, and you are in the northern hemisphere, breeding season is right around the corner.
If you have a multispectrum bulb on her for a long time, cut the hours to 8 hrs of daylight a day. That will keep her and her boy-toy platonic.

Yes first you need to separate the birds. As for the female--you will have to teach her to trust you. Don't try to handle her right away--just get to allow you to put your hand in her cage, do that for a few weeks. Allow her to jump on your hand--do not reach for her.for another two weeks---then see how she does. Talk very softly to her at all times
No quick movements. gain her trust first--then perhaps she will allow you to touch her. But do it slowly--small steps.Eventually she will want to come to you on her own. I hope this advice works! Good Luck!

You could if you wanted to, i think that you should just ease her into a seperate cage everyday. Like an hour 1 day, 2 hours and so on. Untill finally she stops crying all together. Then you will be able to spend more time with her.

There is no problem with keeping them seperated. In fact, it is a great way to keep them from breeding!!!
Put her cage right next to the other cage and let them have time out of the cage together, that way she doesn't think they are being punninshed.
