David posts regularly on the classified section of this board.
A novel approach would be for you to contact him directly.

My personal opinion would say that if the person from whom
you purchased the birds was responsible, the Timneh and Congo
would not have been housed in the same cage to begin with.
Birds do not know that they are "different" and will bond
with a bird that they like, irrespective the species barrier.

I personally don't think that bonded pairs of any type should
be separated even if they aren't appropriate for breeding.
I am a breeder so I can say this and not have you think that
I'm a bleeding heart pet-only owner.
Suck it up and let them live out their days in happiness and
fore-go the monetary gain. There are worse things that could
happen than this bird living in harmony.
