Thinking of a New Friend for Your Parrotlet? Watch This First! |

- I had 2 people write and ask about getting their Parrotlet a new friend.
Of course, I think it's a good idea. It increases a parrot's wellbeing and enjoyment of life.
Parrotlets take to new Parrotlets, not 100% of the time, but even when they don't make a bond, they appreciate being with another Parrotlet. It helps them feel safer and more secure.
Watch to make sure you understand as best you can how to add the new Parrotlet safely so that a new Parrotlet or baby doesn't get hurt.

Thank you for a great tutorial and sharing images of your parrots.
Always enjoy them .😊
Thank you for posting and watching!
Very cute! One of my hens regurgitates to me all of the time. Yech! I just speak quietly and tell her she’s a good girl. One of my black headed males was great with the entire flock. 2 years later he only likes the females. He goes for the males and tries to fight. He’s my only male that exhibits this behavior. I’ve tried all of the tricks to no avail. So he has recess with the girls, the 2 that put up with his craziness! He’s also the smallest bird. He never stops moving or speaking! Your parrotlets are so pretty. They look like little, jeweled clock work toys!❤️🤩❤️
Parrots jond with either gender- but Caiques seem different, yours certainly are -
Sending hugs to your flock!
I love parrotlets, so adorable.
I forgot, do you have one?
@ParrotBliss I did have a few, my daughter has them.
Love the idea to completely remodel the old cage while the birds are out as a way of getting around the 3rd cage problem. Was wondering how I should go about putting Mango and his new beau, Maude together once she reaches maturity.
So, Maude travelled down from the city on Sunday.... her first time in a cage, since she's an aviary-bred bird.... and was brilliantly calm and adaptable. She's only 4 1/2 months old so mot yet ready to be in with Mango, but he visits her through the day and the budgies spend a lot of time over with her. I think she's going to fit in really well with the flock. Though her current cage is quite small, the addition of native tree mulch on the bottom of the cage gives her plenty of digging space, keeping her fit and active.
She is so lucky, A! She's getting a great home! Mango must already be thrilled, and I Manga is a great name 😃
LMK, how remodeling works. I would change the location, too, so it's “different “ for Mango.
The enrichment! I'm jealous! At least I have fronds-
@@ParrotBliss Yes, I'll need to swap the tables so the cage is in a new position too. Good idea. And i'll need to get that bloody quail out. The thing crows night and day. If I get up to pee in the wee hours of the night, just as I pass the cage it screams its head off, scaring me half to death!
Kakarikis are Winter breeders, so its unlikely there'll be babies till next year with Maude (Mum named her, since she collected her for me) being so young. Still, giving her time to mature is preferable to breeding too young. It's Winter here now (beginning) so Rax's favourite onion grass is just starting to come up. He's a very happy cocky.
@@anserbauer309 That quail sounds like trouble! Lol
Yes, I agree, waiting to breed is best.
You are coming out of the summer heat, we’re coming into it!
Buenas aves ❤
Saludos!
Thank you for your nice video. I would be grateful to know your thoughts about the following issue: I have eight parrotlets. They are all between 4-8 months. I keep them in big cages and outside (I live in Thailand). There is one couple in each cage. All the cages are next to each other, because I would like to have the birds as one flock. In two weeks the parrotlet aviary, which we do for them, will be ready and I just wonder how to put them into it, so that they immediately don't start attacking and hurting each other (males protecting their females from other males, etc. We had this problem two months ago when we tried to put two couples in one big cage together). The reason why we decided to make an aviary for them is that the aviary is constructed in a way that it provides a maximal safety for the birds. The cages with the bars of 1 cm distance do not. There are many cats in the neighborhood and also there is a falcon which keeps coming from time to time and tries to attack the parrotlets through the bars.
Do you have an idea how to get these eight parrotlets together safely? Shall we keep their open cages inside the aviary? Thank you very much for your thoughts.
It is going to depend a lot on how big your aviary is. They need a lot of space to be able to claim their own territory in the aviary- but NOT their cages. They are young enough they might be able to get along, but they need a lot of space to get away. I had an aviary that was so big I could walk in it and one or two Parrotlets had to be removed because they didn't do well with the rest of the flock. Watch them for many hours to make sure they get along and remove any that don't.
There is one moderator on multiple parrotlet sites who constantly is reiterating that parrotlets should be single, or will kill each other & it drives me insane. I've gone back & forth with her & feel its wrong as a moderator she is telling new parrotlet owners this. She is literally influencing thousands of parrotlet owners decisions & I think has maybe had 1 or 2 in her life.
@@rosesanford3015 I understand where you’re coming from. That’s one reason I make my videos. I think it’s so terrible. Parent lets really rely on their bonded mate and their flock for security. They are so small! It is too big of a world. And, unfortunately, there are people who do exactly what you are saying. They have next to no experience, because having one or two means nothing. It is not enough to see what the species is like and what circumstances affect their behavior. Every time people rely on my experience and get too, they are very happy.I appreciate that you post to the person. Someone has to say something and at least present an opposite argument for people who don’t know and are reading the posts.
@ParrotBliss I'm now on my 4th & learning more each day from them. I can't tell you how many times I've been lost & look for the answer on your channel & find solid, realistic advice. We bird parronts appreciate you! 🙏 ❤️ Also, thank you for making a video answering my babe & parents cohesive living question!💖

How many of your parrotlets have bonded with you to the same level as the little yellow one on your shoulder where they will mimic feeding you, they will preen you and will stay on you for long periods of time despite other parrotlets being around? I’m just wondering in a group setting how realistic is it to have more than 1 Parrotlet bond with you in this way? I have one I’m working on right now but I will get her a friend to once she’s tame and I’m certain we have a lasting bond.
I posted a pic for you - look under my "community" tab.
I have several that are super friendly, but they all connect in their own way.
This is a little off topic from this video.
Would you recommend a Hahns Macaw for someone who works 36 hrs weekly?
I have also heard that Senegals make great birds for busy owners.
Speaking from experience, I wouldn't recommend any bird on its own for someone who works away from home full-time. A pair or flock of birds will cope with such long absences, depending on the species (and individual personalities), but any parrot on its own is likely to struggle without company all day.
Unfortunately, I have to agree. Hahn’a or Senegals are likely to get lonely and stressed, causing plucking and/or health issues.
Getting 2 Hahn’s would be better, but not Senegals because they can not always be caged together, so they would be alone still.
