It is not a good idea. If you provide a larger nesting box for the cockatiel and a small one for the budgie, there should be no problem. If the budgie has already claimed the larger nesting box as her own, you will never train her to leave, and will need to buy another large box for the cockatiel.
put cotton or sticks in it, and you can even buy nesting supplies at a pet store.
When designing and setting up a domestic duck nesting box, key considerations include providing enough space for the duck to comfortably move around, ensuring the box is secure and predator-proof, placing the box in a quiet and secluded area, and providing nesting materials such as straw or hay. Additionally, the box should have a low entrance for easy access and be cleaned regularly to maintain hygiene.
A bird box should ideally face away from prevailing winds and direct sunlight, usually toward the east or southeast. This orientation protects birds from harsh weather and excessive heat. Additionally, placing the box at least 5-10 feet off the ground and away from dense vegetation helps deter predators and provides a safe environment for nesting.
