If you have only had them for three months, they may not be comfortable enough in their environment to breed. Try to stimulate breeding conditions::Longer periods of light, bountiful food, and frequent baths. Provide a very very high quality diet, breeding takes a lot of work! Also, be sure that the perches in your cage are thick enough for the hen to get a good grip while the male mates with her. Try also placing to perches parallel to each other and about 10-20inches apart. This stabilizes the pair while they mate. Good luck!
