Sarah,
I had a small conure that was an escape artist and always ended up in the
aviary with a U2. The U2 and the conure had formed a sort of friendship, but
I had to discourage it because at any time, without warning, the U2 could
have gotten himself an attitude and killed the conure. I'm going to post a
link to a picture I took of the two when they had both managed to escape and
ended up on top of a Rosellas cage. (third row, farthest on right) Look at
the size difference in the birds and imagine how quickly the U2 could tear
the Conure in half. Grusome image huh? Now imagine an even smallert bird
like a keet in the senario. I don't think anyone is trying to be mean to
you, it's just that what you are proposing is an extremely dangerous
situation and nobody wants to see your budgies get slaughtered. -Alison-
