I'm really considering getting another caique, but I'm not sure how successful I'll be at introducing a new bird this late in the game. Kate just turned two, and I'm starting to worry about her social needs.
Lily and Sam don't share a cage but they do spend a couple hours together each day, and it really seems to do something for them. Lily still screams when I'm not holding her but when she's with Sam it's considerably less frantic. Kate bangs her beak against the bars when they're out and screeches to be let out.
For the most part Kate is a happy bird. When she's alone, she entertains herself with toys and she's pretty independent.But sometimes I can tell she's lonely. She tries to mimic the birds outside. She still tries with Lily, but she completely rejected her right from the start. I honestly think Lily puts up with Sam because he practically worships her. Because of Kate's personality, I can't just have her chill out next to me while I'm doing work. I love Kate and I want her to be a happy bird.
I wanted to know what you guys think.
