introducing birds

I recently got a new baby boy budgie to befriend my current 2 Yr old male budgie and while they seem to want to be near eachother they also keep picking on eachother. Whenever there is food, my new budgie tries to steal from my older one causing the older one to snap at him. Sometimes they try...

Hi, We have had Bruno, an English budgie, for around 4-5 months now (he's 6 months old) and we recently got him a friend (Bobby - a 'normal' budgie, 1 month old). Bruno had settled in very well on his own, he became tame very quickly and spent most of each day out of his cage when we were home...

Hi fellow bird lovers, I have a beautiful grey Indian Ringneck (Alfonso) who turned 1 on November 21st. We're quite certain he's a male as I've seen him. doing what looks like a mating dance with some of his toys but he hasn't developed his ring yet. We brought home a beautiful 4 month old...

I have three budgies, Bubbles a 6 yr old male who loves bells and is being weaned off of mirrors, Aqua a 4 yr old male he has an injured wing that makes it difficult for him to fly and Sunny a one year old female who isn't tame yet. I will be getting a Bourke hopefully soon once I find a good...

My partner and I have had our Quaker parrot Milo for 8 months, and he has just turned two. We decided to get a rehomed green cheek conure and bring her home to meet him. His attitude has completely changed towards me though, he has become jealous and aggressive. He doesn't seem to want to let...

Hello everyone, need some help. long read my apologies I have had a blue and gold named Zoey for over 10 years. in all honest terms she is my kid. Very recently i moved in with my fiance and Zoey has been having a very hard time. Not only did I move in with someone but i changed my job and am...

We currently have a bonded pair of Male green cheek conures (we're assuming they're male. They havent laid eggs in the 2 years we've had them). Our friend is looking to rehome a female green cheek. We're wondering if theres a safe way of introducing them and caging all three of them together...

Hi, I have a three year old peach faced lovebird since a chick. He's tame and has always been very closely bonded to me, however I've been wondering for some time, would it be possible to introduce him to a companion of his own species? would another lovebird be best/ easiest for him to bond to...

So I have Lilly (Female) my only bird, a Pineapple green cheek, about 2 years old... and she's been with me for about a year. She doesn't bite and is quite attached to me... she screams for me when I leave the room... or just follows me in lol. Shes VERY shy, and still wont let me touch her...

We've had our conures Charlie and kiwi for almost three years. We weren't planning on getting a larger bird anytime soon but my cousins didn't have the time for their cockatoo Nigel because of work and their kids so they sold her to us. We've had Nigel since last Monday on the 20th. Since we've...

My newest green cheek conure, Linus, got out of quarantine a week ago, I want to start introducing him to my other green cheek, Jake. I've read a bit about how to do it safely, but I'm still a little paranoid that they may harm one another. I doubt Linus would harm Jake (he is only 4 months...

hello everyone! This is my first post so hopefully i remember to include as much info as possible. So! Ive got an eclectus parrot, hes a male, and hes about 16 months old. His name is max. He's absolutely beautiful and such a sweet heart. Hes been around cats before, which he is not scared of...

Yesterday we adopted a (roughly) 3 year old female alexandrine to add to our family and keep our 2 year old male(and only bird) companionship. Have never adopted an older bird before.. in fact our only parrot experience is with our current bird and we have had him since a baby. She is hand...

Hi everyone! I have a Meyer's parrot, a female who is 4 years old. She has recently started to behave as if she wants to mate with me: she makes little noises, stands with her back towards me and lifts up her behind a little. It has first happened about a moth ago, exactly at the same time as...

So, I was just looking at furniture on the online classifieds, and one of the sellers also had a corella...... My girl is adopted and she came to me from an owner who also had a corella. I can't remember, but I think they were in an aviary together (and with another corella). What's...
