Hi i was wondering if someone could help me..
I got my mams Male cockatiel off her hes about ten year old. Well the cage he was in was too small so I bought him a cage that's about 5ft and quite wide. (Suitable for a parrot)
Any how we put him in and he would not stop screeching, so we bought him a female companion, shes only a baby shes now 14-15 weeks old and shes very happy singing all the time and follows the Male around the cage all over. However he did stop squealing and quitened down. Withing a few days they were both eating together sleeping onthe same perch ect and they seem to get on well most of the time. However he was at his mirror and hes just been pulling her tail as she was on the perch above and her tail kept getting in the way. I have now covered them up. Ive never seen him get that aggressive with her. They are now on separate perches because I have moved one around that she was on..
He seems to hump his perch a lot lately but like I say shes the one that follows him around..
They have been house about 3 weeks now. Will they be ok?
Has anyone ever experienced this? Shes an aviory bird and hes never been one for being handled.
