Your cockatiel, just like a chicken, can lay eggs without a mate. They just won't be fertilized. Can a tiel and a keet breed? Yes, but they will not be able to produce a clutch. These birds can go through all the motions of a pair of birds... without the offspring. Your cockatiel will only ever produce fertile eggs with another cockatiel. Hope this helped.

Unfortunately the parakeet and cockatiel won't be able to have babies. They might pair up and act like a birdy couple and the female lay eggs, but the parakeet won't be able to fertilize the eggs. They're just not closely related enough for it to work. If there was a way, I'm sure there'd already be little parakeet/cockatiel mixes in all the pet stores making great little pets.

woman birds will lay eggs despite in the event that they're on their own, they'll basically never hatch through fact there became no male to fertilize the eggs. in the adventure that your chicken is many times hand-tame you should take the eggs out very quickly so as that she would not become shielding of the eggs. good success!!!

THey could but.. THE likly ness of them I meen the babbies surviving Is about below 1.
So I don't think a cockatiel and budgierigar could ... First you have to hjave to birds actually like THE other bird... The proper sex'es and ... IT's really complicated... I don't think They would live... DOnt try..

No.
Just like if you have sex with a dog, it won't have super-intelligent, mostly hairless puppies.
