- A crossover Quaker Scuti (F), A Sun conure AC, A GCC Kent (M), and 7 budgies, Yellow (f), Clark Jr. (m), Dot (f),. AND 4 BABY BUDGIES.
My 3 big birds are mixed on the budgies, the Sun Conure loves all of them and they sit beside, the green cheek and the Quaker have favorites and will "RARW feint" off one they aren't happy with.
It's autumn now, and I've had mice before, split level there is access they didn't consider in garage. I did live traps before, and let them go blocks away. Then was like screw it later on when it came coming back. Haven't seen or trapped any yet.
According to google A Sun Conure or the above mentioned big birds would not attack a mouse. BUT there are even accounts of accounts of budgies killing mice. I know chickens kill them all the time.
If a mouse climbed up to my "cage island" do you think my Sun or the GCC for sure would defend the flock? My Sun and GCC would definitely have the advantage in a melee. Especially the GCC as he is a Brawler at heart.
I honestly think the only reason I have this mixed experience panning out is the Sun Conure was brought in as a baby with the GCC when the budgies were here, and now he dances and swings his head around because he also knows I love the budgies so they sit beside him and they jump in the pool after he takes a bath.
I guess what I'm asking is any real world examples of parrots defending parrots?
