    Introducing two parrotlets

    Thanks for the Advice @Wera, I tried them eating together this morning and honestly it’s been the best interaction between them both so far! I also made sure to make it a neutral zone, kiko’s never been too keen on the sofa so I used that to negate any dominant behaviour. I’ll try posting a...

    Introducing two parrotlets

    last one I promise! 🥰 how cute is this little girl!? Seeing her outside and how naturally she has loved every second makes me so happy as a parrot slave 🥰 having parrots is often stressful and worrying especially during that settling in period, but moments like this make it all worth while...

    Introducing two parrotlets

    On Lucy’s biting issue, we’ve had some progress! I had a good training session with her this morning, had her stepping up and then back onto the training stand, any bites she got put back on the training stand and I’d step away and turn my back for a few moments. It really seemed to click after...

    Update on Kiko, so it definitely feels like Kiko is becoming too hormonal alas 😖 He’s very intense with Lucy and actually tried to mount her which obviously didn’t go down very well. No one got hurt, I put her straight back in her cage and left Kiko out to see if he would calm down, but he was...

    Oops meant to add, as Roz mentioned expect to through most of it away! Don’t get discouraged if he doesn’t like it initially one day he could just randomly chow down on it all.

    I totally had this issue with Kiko and am working through it with our new baby Parrotlet Lucy. Initially whilst Kiko was unbonded with us it was almost impossible, although mixing stuff in with his seed mix definitely helped. After we had tamed him, he basically wanted to try anything we were...

    Introducing two parrotlets

    Slightly different question but not sure whether to keep it here so everyone has some context for the situation. I’m struggling a bit with Lucy, she’s obviously very tame from being hand raised, but being a baby she wants to chew everything, including my hand/skin… and she chews HARD! I was...

    Actually it’s really funny, he’s always turned his nose up at these foraging seeds. But they’re Lucy’s favourite treat so far. Not sure who’s influencing who because sat next to her; he couldn’t gobble them down fast enough 🤣

    Awww bless Henni sounds like a real character! I took your advice and turns out I was over thinking it, Kiko was very sweet with her 🥰 I think his aggression was actually frustration at having the cages between them and him wanting to interact with her. Kept it short and sweet so it was a...

    Oh also sorry quick question about Henni, do you have to keep her in a separate room whilst the others are out? Or do the others stay away from her cage?

    Introducing two parrotlets

    I sense Kiko wants to play nice, we have had them feeding quite close together and being nice. I caught Kiko doing the wobbly neck thing for her that Parrotlet’s are famous for. I definitely think I’ll be the one getting bit based on how Kiko is being 😂 which is very unusual for him, he’s...

    Introducing two parrotlets

    I have a three year old male parrotlet called Kiko, my wife and I really enjoy interacting with him in the evenings so much so that we thought it would be fun to introduce another bird to the flock. We got Lucy a young 14week old Parrotlet who the breeder had been forced to hand raise due to...
