Hi i am sorry to hear about your cockatiel dying.

With budgies ( parakeets) the females tend to be the agressive of the sexes especially when they are not ready to mate.
The problem with birds is that prefer to choose there mate and will not bond of they dont like the mate chosen for them.

Is it possible you could seperate the birds see how she reacts it could be that he is trying to mate with her and because she is not in breeding condition she will get very angry and attack him.

Male birds are very pushy and will attempt to mate anytime of the year wether the hen ( female ) is ready or not.

If seperating them is not possible keep a very close eye on the and aslong as there is no feathers being pulled out or any blood being drawn then everything should sort itself out.

HI birds usually will start mating at the age of 6months old but its best to wait till they are atleast 12-18 months old this way both are mature to raise a family.

From the look of the birds in your picture the male looks about 1year old as he has a very prominant blue cere. The female looks around 6-8months old due to the barring on her head.
