Hi guys.
I've just gotten into IRN and I am just a little confused about what Foliage ( not nesting material) should I cram my cage with to enhance the mating ritual?.....
Any help would be great on this subject.

It all depends on the size of the cage. If the cage is large, I would place heavy branches to ensure mating is successful. I would also take branches with leaves form fruit trees or eucalyptus and place them inside too. In most cases, just ensure there is a nice platform made of wood or wire for mating. A sturdy perch is just as important too.
Also, you might place the cage in a private area such as a corner for privacy. Privacy is the key to a successful mating pair in my experience. If they feel bothered too much then there is a chance you'll end up with infertile eggs or no babies at all. But thankfully ringnecks are prolific breeders.
Best of luck my friend,
