Mating

[Lu01]

I don’t know if this goes on the breeding section but if I wanted to find a partner for my Quaker. I’m afraid i won’t be able to get one with his same age. Would the mate/pair if they have 3 month difference or 5?? I’m not interested in them having babies but more of being partners!

They do not have to be the exact same age to get along with each other.

It will all come down to their personalities rather than age. So if you are not going to breed, age doesn´t really matter though I would try steer away from a really old bird with a really young bird.

Thanks! I ask at the store we’re I got a mate for my other bird and she said it dos matter but then I called another store where I got my other bird and he said it doesn’t and I was completely confused and unsure. So happy to have this forum!!

I think it´s important to be very clear. Hearing the word ¨mate¨ they may think you want to breed them, in which case it´s better to have similar aged birds.

Glad to have you here, Welcome!
