( posted this to a wild bird forum on accident <\3 )okay so . about a year ago me and my mom rescued a peach-faced lovebird that was a baby, it couldn't have been more than a few weeks old (was still grey w/o all his colorful feathers) and we got him checked out and he didnt have any diseases or ANYTHING, so we decided to keep him and im taking pretty good care of him i think! (i buy him regular toys and hes on a chop diet and i spend hours a day w/ him )
im a teenager so its hard to get all the stuff i need for him but luckily! we moved a few months ago to somewhere close to a shopping center where i can buy what i need : D!
HERES THE KICKER THO,,
i was reading some stuff about keeping lovebirds as pairs and how its not too much extra work , and i wanna do it, but i have a few worries???? first, i'm not scared of him liking me less cause even though i LOVE him to death and that would break my heart, his happiness would make that feel better :]]]
second!! we dont do anything to make him that way ofc but hes always been a little aggressive (or like?? fiesty? ) so id be worried about the two birds hurting each ofher if they hated each other , or smthg like that
im alsooo worried about any underlying sicknesses a bird could have and give to him? he doesnt have any so i dont know how that would affect him, but its still a concern !
OK ALSO!! ive been saying "he" but we dont know 100% what his sex is so thatd complicate things, i would wanna get a test for that before doing anything
if anybody can offer me some advice or thoughts i would LOVE TO HEAR THEM!!!i want my little guy to be happy and i believe he is rn but i wouldnt hesitate to make him even happier ^^^
