Hi there!
I am an experienced budgie owner (I have an outdoor aviary of 20 budgies as well as two hand-reared indoor show budgies who are strongly bonded to me), and have recently started to consider bringing a tame cockatiel into my bird family - however, I am wary of keeping different bird species together. From my research, it seems okay to keep budgies and cockatiels together since they interact in the wild, however I am very cautious. The cockatiel would live in large, separate cage from my two tame budgies, and I would like to be able to let the birds interact when they are out of the cage.
If this is risky, I'll definitely keep my house a budgie-only zone!
Thanks for any advice!
