My boyfriend's cousin recently died unexpectedly, leaving his Maximilian to me. I already have an 18yo Nanday Conure that is possessive of me. I have been on here reading all day, gathering tons of information. I still would like to know a few more things before picking this little guy up tonight.
How do you deal with a grieving bird? Obviously he will be going through a lot of changes, losing a loving owner, moving to a new home with a new family, AND having to deal with another bird in the house.
When I met him, he got spooked and flew in to the wall. When we put him back in his cage, he fell asleep and then threw up. Should I be worried?
Any tips on integrating birds in this kind of situation?
Anything else you think I should know/do/try (even if it seems obvious!)?
I greatly appreciate any advice you all have to offer. Merry Christmas!
