I have been on here for about a year now with my Yellow Naped Amazon. I have been here before checking out the big birds. My Bill is a one person bird, only me. After a year my wife and son r have just come to the conclusion that he's an ass and they stay away. It upsets me that they have never been able to experience the love that Bill gives. There still are times when I think he hates me, but I know that he is moody and I give him his space when needed. We thought about getting another bird but with how Bill acts my wife wasn't real quick to get another. We found out a lady the next town over has a bird rescue. We went over and my wife fell for a Salmon Cockattoo. Her name is Banker and she is 50. She is the sweetest loving animal ever. We've had her for a week and the whole family can do anything with her. I will say she is loud! I don't really mind it it her way of talking. Going from one extreme to the exact opposite has been a joy. Bill has not changed at all and that's ok we understand one another.
Banker has a couple things that he does that I haven't been able to pick up on yet. I will get to understand her more as time goes on, and I'm excited to be able to do it. She will climb down off her home and come up on the couch to lay with me. Her breath smells like cookies!
I know I'm getting long here but I wanted to ask if anyone ever had a too and a zon hang out together. Today was the first time that Banker went down the back of the couch next to Bills cage. The Too seems super cool and just wanted to check it out. The Zon gets puffed up and angry looking. I didn't let them get closer then 2 feet just in case. Now Banker is trying to climb up Bills cage. I don't mind keeping them apart and doing what needs to be done but I just wondered if in time maybe they would be nice to each other. They haven't been mean but Bill looked a bit pissed she was on his house?
I looked at so much info on here for my Bill, I guess I'm doing a bunch more for Banker too. While I visited her 4 times and had her over my house for a couple hours I found out a bunch of info. Look forward to hearing what you guys have to say. Thanks
