senegal parrot

[snodhutch]

I have aquired a senegal parrot. Can it live in an outside aviary in this country and can i house it with cockatiels, budgies, lovebirds, rock pebblars and kakarikis. Thank you for your help

I know that these folks are well thought of, maybe you can contact them for proper advice

Why did you not sort all this out before you bought the poor bird?

Jeez! Love how people jump to conclusions on here! Maybe, just maybe the op has rescued the bird!

Anyway! I'm pretty new to parrot keeping myself so would not like to advise but there is a forum attached to this link that you could try asking on.

Alternatively try Yell.com for a list of local parrot breeders! If you can find a decent one they should be able to answer your questions!
I have just joined a parrot forum but there is little 'traffic' on there so you may have to wait a while for your answer.
Good luck

Even if rescued, frying pan to fire springs to mind.......

This doesn't say about co-housing but it's useful - http://www.petco.com/...rd/Parrot_Senegal.pdf

dont find your attitude very helpful WOLFGANG when you dont know the facts. as i originally said i aquired the bird. i do not have to go into details for you suffice to say i did not plan on having it but now i have it i would like to do the best i can for it. i own a number of animals and birds and have never taken on a pet without thorough research beforehand, unfortunately there was no time for research this time so i am looking for people who can help me. thank you very much to everyone else who have given advice and suggested web sites
