Post: need advice

Posted by Angela on 2/20/07

For the past 8 years I have had 2 cockatiels. One of them
pasted away recently when she had an egg rupture inside
her.

I am grief stricken, but my concern is for my other bird.
She has never had to be a solo bird. She seems very
depressed and she spends the first part of her day all
alone until I get home at night. I would like to get a new
second bird but I honestly do not want to get another
cockatiel. I have had so much trouble with their chronic
egg laying along with other issues. For selfish reasons, I
would like to buy a bigger bird. But I need a new companion
for my little one. I have had friends’ birds over to my
apartment in the past and my birds have just been afraid of
them. Are there any other breeds, like maybe a green cheek
conure- that are more likely to become pals with my lonely
little girl?

Please advise.
