Strolling the yard
I'm very new on this (first post ) so excuse any mistakes..
There's a little lovebird in my local pet shop. Not sure how old he is (though I will ask today) and I don't know the sex (I will ask today, though I have my doubts they will know. Also, I say he as its easier). He is all by himself in a small cage, no toys, just one plastic dowel perch. As you can imagine, I feel so bad for this little bird. I am seriously debating getting him..The only thing is, I am supposed to be getting a hand reared cockatiel. It will be around August I'll be getting the tiel. I know their personalities will be so different, the lovebirds are generally louder, more aggressive, and if this lovebird is an adult, it could take months to tame him, and it mightn't even work. But I feel so bad for him..I have everything I need for a bird (large cage, toys, aid kit) and yes, they are all appropriate for a lovebird too, I just need food. By now, I'm babbling on, so I just really need someone to help me out. Should I get this lovebird, or wait for the cockatiel? Also, I should mention this lovebird has been in the shop quite a while.
