I had a yellow sided turquoise green cheek lined up but sadly it turned out to be a girl. We have firmly decided on another male. SOOOOOO my breeder has a male turquoise normal baby or a male blue parrotlet. I am leaning toward the parrotlet for a few different reasons, they are said to be about as quiet as green cheeks, i think it would be interesting to have a different species, My research suggests that parrotlets are a little less clingy than green cheeks would might be good so Punk does not feel like he is competing for attention, and they are adorable.
What i am worried about is that i have heard some do not get along well with other birds. Will this be the case if it is a baby when I bring it home and it has its own large cage? I am not worried about being territorial of his cage because that is his space, but will he be able to come out and play on a gym with Pumpkin? How stand offis are they exactly? I dont mind it not being a velcro bird, but I dont want a species that will hit puberty and hate me either.
I also have the option of a normal turquoise green cheek but it would not be my first choice for color sake. Or I could wait for another clutch. Opinions?
