how to introduce a newborn to my flock

lotosha · Nov 13, 2014

Hi, everyone.
I have a couple of 'tiels and one very lovely CAG at home. I am about to give birth to my first baby boy. My CAG is very attached to me, so I'm not sure he'll be happy with a new arrival. Do you have any suggestions on how to introduce the baby to a parrot and vice versa?
Thanks everyone.

Congrats on your new baby.....I think your 'tiels will be OK, but your CAG may or may not exhibit some jealousy, but I think if you introduce the baby as you would a new bird to the flock, much like you would an adolescent to a senior adult and while I know where your attentions are going to be focused, except when answering an emergency, you might want to be careful to speak to/address your CAG every time you are on your way to tend to your baby and while baby is sleeping, show more attention to your CAG, because every time the baby cries & you run, and the bird puts 2 & 2 together and starts crying like your baby.....

You may have a conundrum on your hands

Do all parrots have a craniofacial hinge?
