Many parrot lovers wonder whether it is possible to have a second bird at home.
Bird owners are especially interested in the question of how to keep parrots of different species together.
Budgerigars
Small parrots get along well with each other and also get along with cockatiels and canaries.
However, keep in mind that the diet of budgies is quite different from that of cockatiels, and it will be quite difficult to provide both species with the required number of perches.
Lovebirds
From the name of this species of parrots it is clear that they need company. However, we are talking about pairs.
And if you decide to get a second pair, you won’t be able to add them to the existing pair: the birds will become irreconcilable enemies.
In addition, they will not get along with cockatiels. Although the latter seem more powerful than lovebirds, cockatiels are more timid and can get injured by lovebirds.
In addition, the sex of the birds also affects good relationships. Experts advise getting a pair of males: when they have nothing to share between themselves, the birds get along well together.
