11:30pm?!?!?!?! What were they doing even awake?!?! Tweety and Dexter?!?! MATING?!?!?! But Dexter's just a baby!

You need to seperate them immediately because Dexter is too young to start mating. I know for cockatiels, the minimum age to allow them to mate is 2 1/2, and though its obviously younger for keets, I believe Dexter is still way to young for this. Clapping won't work in seperating them when they do that! You have to pick one birdie up and take him away. As for eggs, it is possible, since you didn't stop them when they just started, but the most imposrtant thing to remember, is DO NOT put a nest box in their cage. It will only encourage them to mate. Also, reduce their daylight hours. Make them sleep at 8 in total darkness, so they cannot see beneath their covers, and wake them up at 8 or 9 in the morning. That worked for me. Be consistant in keeping them seperate. Their hormones will go down eventually, and though they might scream back and forth for a few days, they'll stop eventually. You have an extra cage right? Just don't let them mate even if you want babies, because Dexter's too young. His cere is barely even blue yet! How old is Tweety? Don't forget putting cuttlebone in their cage, because they REALLY need calcium at this time!
