Oh! My Male ( Echo) has never let anybody handle him. He will let me set him on top of the cage and once in a great while he will let me scratch the top of his head. I wanted to get him a wife so that he would at least have a companion, but I don't want to get a female that will not want anything to do with him because she already had a mate. Does that make since?

I am sorry. The female that I am looking to Buy is the one that has lost her mate. I want to purchase this proven female for my male bird to see if they will hit it off. Yes I was going to just put theire cages side by side to let them get used to each other. I was asking because I don't want to buy this female if it is a known fact tht she will never want to mate with another male.

I am looking to buy an proven african grey female who is nine years old. Apparently this female, who's name is Marybell, first mate died a year ago. I have an healthy male ( DNA sexed) African Grey for the last seven years. I want him to have a mate ( if he is willing). My question is, is it unheard of for a African Grey Female to take another mate after losing their first mate?
