Quarantine

[kiertje]

Hey,
I was wondering if you guys stick quarantine cause I am looking around for a new linnie but we only have a two week garantee policy, so if were not to work out I can bring him/her back between two weeks. They have been in quarantine for 6 weeks in the store.

so if were not to work out

What does this mean?

Definitely quarantine for at least 4 weeks, you need to get negative test results back from the vet before they can mix with your bird (or even be in the same room).

Yeah policy is two weeks here in the Netherlands for new pets to return them, if they for instance wouldn't get along so that is my struggle at the moment. Cause would be stuck with birds in different cages than and would have to sell or give away to a shelter.

If that is the case then I would recommend not to bring home a second bird. It´s not fair on them. Leave them for someone who will give them a forever home.

Stick to quarantine. If you bring another bird home you have to be prepared for them not to get along

Ah, it easily could take more than two weeks for you to know if they're truly going get along. Two of mine took several months before the arguing totally stopped, and now they are good friends.
