bare eye cockatoo at my house/tiels hate her

Postby bostonbudgie on Sun May 20, 2007 9:22 am

kiwi the bare eye cockatoo is at my house. Her owner brought her up yesterday.She is an 8 year old female bare eye. She wa well taken care of. it is just now her owners lifestyle has changed and thought a different household would be better for her.Kiwi did great adjusting but two of my hand raised adult tiels hate her. they hiss at her and are p788ed off at me.
Button, my special needs," lutino flew right over to her and was imitiating her (grooming, regurgitating and sharing her food!)She thinks she has a new pal but I monitoring them closely. All the other birds all freak when Kiwi 'calls". this is only day one, I want to give Kiwi a chance because she is a great bird but I worry about my other spoiled tiels.

did you quarantine her? You may want to start over since it is only one day.

This is what I would do. If you have an extra cage, put a white stuffed animal in in and give it attention. See how the tiels react. when they get used to it then move the too in.

Or - give it time

things are getting a little better but they still freak out when kiwi "calls". I bought them all some new toys to keep occupied with.
i really hope it works out.
