Hello all
I rescued a female Senegal parrot today (and I am so glad I did, her cage reeks of cigarette smoke and is all rusty, getting a new one asap).
I knew when I was getting her, that I am not sure that I can keep her, so I thought at least I foster her for now, and find her a very nice family If it doesn’t work out (which I told the former owner upfront).
I have two female green cheeks that are my parrots and of course aren’t going anywhere. One thing I didn’t know before I rescued this new bird, was how aggressive they can with the other parrots. I probably can’t keep her if I cannot have her in the same room with my two parrots, since she won’t be getting enough time with me in that case.
So my question is, has anyone at all been successful with having a Senegal and a green cheek in one room? Or a Senegal and a slightly smaller parrot? A side note: she is very sweet with people in general, and was housed with a male Senegal, who lived in a different cage, but they were fine being out together before. She is also on a smaller side, bigger than my two birds, but not much.
thank you everyone. I really would like to try keeping her, as she is super sweet and adorable, and I am in love, so I’m hoping for some senegal and other parrots stories with a good end, but I understand that it simply might not work out, which will be sad, but I will make 100% sure to find her a wonderful new home (of non-smokers this time).
