Beautiful plummage ❤

@@Mictesting2233 thank you. It doesn't come out as good on camera. It's better in person. It's why I was initially drawn to him.

Keeping them separated is not good after introduction by like a week you should let them share a cage. Also keeping the two cages together is better for them to get used to one another till the merge

[@wh0a12]

@@buoiii5737 It's all up to Mellow. I need to observe how she respond to having him around.

[@Nyklot]

Birds are always somewhat tricky in that regard. They may never become comfortable sharing a cage, and forcing them to do that will cause stress and tension. Or maybe they will become the best buddies or a loving couple. It's not something that can be predicted.

Are you going to take Wollem on weekly trip like Mellow?

Where are you going to put Wollem after two or three weeks?

[@wh0a12]

@@Skylemon2021 he will have the same cage as Mellow and will be next to each other. I'll have to take out some things in my living room to make some room, lol

[@helenellsworth9556]

If its another girl don't put them into the same cage, just keep the cages close but keep girls apart, you can check the tail feathers, if they have bars or markings its a girl, if its a boy, he should be singing by now

@@helenellsworth9556 he doesn't have bars under his tail and I just heard him whistle today so he's a male. I'm glad I was right and don't have to change his name lol
