Long story short one of or birds, Ducky Mango passed due to cancer. It's been a week now and her buddy is still very mopy. He eats and drinks and will chirp if I instigate it. But I leave the cage open for a few hours. a day and he doesn't really fly or play anymore. He seems really sad.
I'm debating getting another bird, because he's still really young. He was a HUGE cuddle bug, friendly bird until we got a second one. He's still friendly but nothing like he was at first when he has another bird.
I hate to see him sad, but we're building a house and sleep training a child. I don't know if I could tame another bird easily at the moment.
Are there any specific signs or things I should look out for as far as him being too depressed? Should I get him a friend? I'm not sure what normal mourning time is for him.
