After having to unexpectedly give away my cockatiels because of very serious health issues, I am to the point I can adopt another bird. I was going to get a cockatiel again, but I fell in love with a lovebird!
Her name is Jubilee (last owners called her Jubee for short) and she is 1.5 years old. I know you are suppose to wait a week before interacting with them but she took to me right away and is now eating millet from my hand. I haven't taken her out yet but that will happen in time. I am not over doing it with the millet either, just once a few hours for five minutes.
Anyway, I know that usually mirrors are frowned upon but I was wondering if a toy that has a distorted mirror is okay? I have a toy that looks like a house and has little toys in the front of the mirror for her to move around and she is just enjoying it. But I want to know if this is okay for her.
Also, I'd love some tips to help me out with her! I did my research before getting her, but personal experiences are way better. When do they get hormonal and what can I do to help her when she is?
They were feeding her seeds (from walmart...) and fruits and veggies. What are some tips to help her like Harrisons? I saw their conversion method but would like others help with it. Also, what toys do they like? Foraging, shiny ones, ones they can tear up, etc?
Thanks guys!
