You can always try repairings - just observe them closely to make sure
there is no sustained aggression.

I think that would work. They may not produce this year. It’s more of
a wait and see kind of thing. I’ve had them and replaced one after
they had been together 20 years (because one died) with no problem.

Chad,
Each of the pairs has been together for at least 2 years. I have had
egg production from both. I have paired up other so-called monogamous
animals before, with other mates, but I usually let the original
animals stay by themselves for a few weeks before I do a
reintroduction. Do you think a lengthy separation of at least a month
should be OK or??????

Hi All,
I’ve 2 pairs of P. standingi. I would like to switch their respective
mates around as I have found out that one pair could be 1st cousins,
while the other pair is completely unrelated. All 4 of the animals
have grandparents and great-grandparents that were w/c. Since I
understand that this taxon can be monogamous, do any of you foresee a
problem if I perform a switch to break up the possible “cousin” pair?
All are relatively young animals, the “cousins” pair were hatched in
different months in early 2003, and the other pair were hatched in
different months in late 2004.
Best….
Jim
