Talon Posted November 2, 2009 Posted November 2, 2009 Hi everyone, I am in need of advice. as most of you know, I have a new family member, a yellow nape amazon. She is in Rikki's old cage that came with Rikki. It is much too small for her. Talon has a sleep cage that is bigger that she has had since she was 9 weeks old. I am wondering how upsetting it would be to switch cages for Talon. She has had quite an adjustment with the third bird already. Don't want her to feel put out anymore than she already does..... What do you guys think, should I switch cages or just buy Nilah a bigger one?
Poppy Posted November 2, 2009 Posted November 2, 2009 I know mine was different circumstances really but when I got George a year ago now he had two different houses a new cage and completely new toys all in about 4 weeks and he was fine with it .I had no problems with him at all. I dont know if I was just lucky with all the upheavel or just the fact that he adjusted really well !
lovethatgrey Posted November 2, 2009 Posted November 2, 2009 Personally, I don't think it would be a big deal if I had to switch cages for Emma. Emma is used to constant change. I think it's a matter of knowing your grey and understanding how they might react to that type of change.
Talon Posted November 2, 2009 Author Posted November 2, 2009 I'm thinking with all the changes in my house with Nilah, I should wait for a while I guess.....But Iam leaning towards a new cage. :pinch: :unsure: :unsure:
lovethatgrey Posted November 3, 2009 Posted November 3, 2009 Sounds like a new cage might be the way to go. I took a look at your bully thread and I really wouldn't want to exacerbate the situation if possible.
Talon Posted November 3, 2009 Author Posted November 3, 2009 I agree with you lovethatgrey. I think best not to upset anyone for the time being. :unsure:
Talon Posted November 6, 2009 Author Posted November 6, 2009 Well, I DID IT! I just ordered a new cage for Nilah. The cage she is in now is Rikki's old cage prior to me having her. It is too small for them, it is 22 x 24. Nilah has a hard time moving around. I bought the largest one I could fit in the only space she has 36 x 28. That should be better. I will post pictures when I get it and build it...
Luvparrots Posted November 6, 2009 Posted November 6, 2009 Glad you figured out want was best for everyone! Can't wait to see Nilah's new cage. Will be waiting patiently for pics!!!
Talon Posted November 6, 2009 Author Posted November 6, 2009 Thanks! I hope it's an okay size for her.....
she Posted November 6, 2009 Posted November 6, 2009 I am sure Nilah will love hernew cage.Lots of room in a cage that size for her.
