Veteran bird, new owner
Posted: Tue Aug 30, 2011 3:25 am
Hi all.
I'm new to this board and I'm soon to be an even newer Indian Ring-Neck Parakeet owner.
I'm adopting the bird from a friend's sick relative. I don't know any details yet except that it is 15 years old, and that makes me a bit nervous. I'm sure it's accustomed to its home and I don't know how it will react to the new environment. But I love birds and I want to give it a try.
I'm not sure what to expect, but I was wondering if anyone has any tips for this specific situation. Will it be uncomfortable in a new environment? How can I help it transition to its new home?
Any advice would be well recieved.
Thanks!
