About a year ago a Blue Lacewing hen turned up at our back door, it looked like her feathers must have grown out and that she got out of her cage and flew off. I advertised everywhere, local pet stores, vets and at the local home owners association. Needless she ended up unclaimed and part of our family.
I think she is about 3 or 4 years old, but that’s just guessing. I called her Twiggy, because when I found her she was chewing on a stick. For some reason she took to me and not my boyfriend, I understand that most of the time most parrots take to the opposite sex. Well now she walks around the house like one of the dogs and talks and whistles all the time. She is such a pleasure! I was wondering, can I get a second IRN or will she change? Also if she’s going to stay the same and not change, would it be better to get a male or female addition?
We got two conures in the time we have had here, they are my boyfriends, and don’t like her (nor me for that matter) at all and she is very weary of them. Mainly I would like to know if I get another IRN would she stay the same or would she become jealous, or stop talking, or aggressive, or would anything happen that would change our relationship. And things like, she doesn’t scream at the moment, only the standard greeting the morning and then the evening; would she start once there is a second IRN in the house and the new IRN would it learn to talk too?
Thank you!
Thank you for all the info. I was more thinking of getting her a friend than of breading with her.
