Rod,
I haven’t read further to see if anyone has answered
your question, but from past observation the answer is yes, white cheeked
eastern can mate with a blue cheeked crimson. We had a “blue cheeked”
Eastern Rosella visit our home in Garran, ACT.
Cheers
Alastair

Further to the discussion of rosellas, I would like to know
whether a white cheeked eastern can mate with a blue cheeked crimson.
Here at Point Lonsdale we frequently see such a 'pair'
always flying and feeding together. Perhaps they are just good friends.
