Put the budgies' cages in different rooms for now. Play music in each room so they won't hear one another.
Limit their daylight to no more than 8 hours per day and limit the amount of protein in their diet.
To help with the continual urge to "mate", ensure your male budgie has access to lots of flight/climbing exercise.
Provide two or three swings to encourage him to keep moving and tire himself out.
Chew toys like Kabobs and other shredding toys are helpful and you should provide plenty of wood to chew--especially when he is in condition.
If the urges don’t dissipate, take the budgie to an Avian Vet for a check-up.
Sometimes, the vet will suggest a special diet or hormone injection to balance the natural hormones.
You may be able to house them together in the future, but it is hard to say at this point until you determine how the male reacts.
