I have had an exceptionally wonderful 3-year old female Meyer's for 2 years now. I answered a Craigslist ad for a bonded pair of male Meyer's. One talks 50+ words, other is very quiet. Long story short, Tiki is 17 y.o., Sas is 12.
She brought them over last night in a 17" square x 40" tall old wrought iron cage. They've lived in it for 7 years! She also brought what was left of a 20# bag of striped sunflower seeds (you know...the wild bird kind). She said they also like apples, popcorn and cookies.
Nails and beaks are very overgrown. At one time, they were both handleable. I don't know how I'll even get them out of the cage to get them to the vet, without making me their enemy forever.
Anyone have experience with such a situation?
Thanks for your help...
