Intergrating new bird into family....how to help needed

Any information is appreciated.

As, we all know "people" have a good intention when buying a parrot.
But, something happens and then it needs a home.

We have a African Grey Congo ( carmine) who we've had since she was 12 weeks she will be 9yrs in June.

And a Lory ( Rainbow) who my husband has had for 17yrs and he's about 25 or so.

Neither one is out of their cages at the same time but share the same room.

BUT, today Felix is arriving at our home he is a 2yr old. Amazon Who's family is moving and are unable to keep him.

Carmine is out of her cage nearly all day ( the birds have their own room by the way) And I would like Felix and Carmine to both be out at the same time.

I'm thinking if I put their cages near each other they in my mind will get used to each other.

Does anyone have any tips on bringing the two of them out at the same time? Is that safe at there ages and not being raised together?

Welcome Crystal. First thing is to set up for a quarantine of 30 days or more. Reason being is that new bird will be shedding viruses for a while due to the stress of change. During that quarantine you should be taking new bird to the avain vet for baseline examination. Felix of course will be in a separate room, sep. toys and you will do things with the resident birds first and please remember good handwashing. After that period of time the birds can be together but not without supervision. Never in the same cage! Still, you need to show to your resident birds that they are the original flock members by feeding and so on first before the new one. I am giving you a link where there are some valuable educational articles. Good luck and please keep us informed.

Thank you. He is in a separate room and I'm lucky to have a great avian vet.
When the day comes that they are all in the same room and Carmine is used to being out most of the day. I just wonder more if different species will get along alright
of course they would never be in the same cage but...maybe I worry to much.
I'm starting to get Felix on a healthy diet he has been eating garbage food in my opinion I was horrified when I was told his favorite treat was Doritos...ugh. people
mostly sunflower seeds peanuts etc.

What sucks about new birds is unless you have a actual quarantine center. (ducking air ventilation and purification as well complete isolation.)
You should actually quarantine min 40 days days to 60
Because it's not uncommon for them to shed some airborne virus's for up to 60 days.
But only a very slim margin of us can actually do that.
So an imidate vet visit should scheduled so you have the re ensurement
Of most blood illness being cheeked off.
Congrats to the new amazon. You will have so much joy with tons of interaction hell have to offer (if he's tame). Just watch out for he ammy mood swings. VISIOUS lol

Some birds get along just fine. If your having them all out, just make sure your there watching!!! Don't ever leave your birds unsupervised while they're out of their cage. Especially with mutiple! I don't trust any bird getting too close to my macaw, if they fly on his cage, they wont have their legs or their life if my macaw gets ahold of them. I don't trust him with other birds....

Thats a TRICKY one.....my experience the wrong way and the good way..I really agree with the quarintine, probably the most important thing 2 remember is that you should not change your routine with your original birds. It may be hard because you want to lavish all of the attention on the new family member. I did this the wrong way once and in turn I have a Sun Conure "Caesar" that will not get along with ANY other bird. He will attack ANY other bird and if I get in the way I get bit and I mean hard. I can have him in the same room with the others but there is always a 3 or 4 foot boundary between him and the others. He was our 1st baby and we spoiled him rotten. When the new members came to the home and he didn't get all of the attention any more it turned bad.
2nd most important thing is to NEVER NEVER leave ANY bird unattended for even a minute, especially if they roaming.....Constant attention....Just like a 2 year old baby. This can be disastrous if not adhered to strictly, especially with larger birds. i don't care how well they SEEM 2 be getting along......don't do it.

Hope this helps and good luck with your new family member.
