I have a parrot amazon double yellow head and wanted to get a citron cockatoo. The amazon is 25 and the new bird will be a baby. Will they get along?
Hi,
In the same cage?
Even though many birds are easy to get along with, there are some that are very territorial, possessive, jealous, aggressive and just flat out nasty towards other birds. This makes populating your bird cage with several specious a potentially explosive situation. Often times, birds of the same species can learn to get along, even in a confined space. But it is potentially dangerous to place two birds of different species in a cage together. You're practically invited a steal cage death match.
The only hard and fast rule is this. If one of the birds is much smaller than the other, make sure the smaller bird is the one who came first.
Good luck.
No I wouldn't put them in the same cage, I wanted to get 2 cages and put them next to each other. ( so they could meet each other) I also thought that the amazon would basically state that she is the boss and teach the baby that. So I thought that it could be possible that they could become friends.
