African Ringnecks and Indian Ringnecks caged together

Post by metodst »

Can Indian Ringnecks and African Ringnecks be caged together?
I have a green 8 month old male Indian Ringneck and I plan to buy a yellow 8 month old female African Ringneck from a breeder and am wondering if they can be caged together as they get used to each others presence. The African Ringneck will come with a cage and toys, so if caging them will be a problem I'll be able to keep them separate.

Thanks for responding :)
I'll just hope that Panchito (my green IRN's name, name given by person I bought him from) will like the company of another bird.

You may want to give them a quarantine time apart from one another. Let panchito get used to his new neighbor before his territory is breached. :)

Before you merge those birds........... Do you have a Hybrid Prevention Plan? Sooner or later you may need one.
Think ahead now.

I heard that the breeding season for Ringnecks in California is during September-March, so if I need to separate them I could take the precaution of separating them during that time

Northern California is more like January through may. Southern California may be a bit earlier.

Yes, I did read something about mutation colour Africans all being hybrid suspects somewhere along the line. I stand by it - even if the African is already "tainted", there's no call to pass that on.

I decided on getting a 3 month old Blue IRN instead which I'll be naming Miku :) if it is a female, that way it would be better for Panchito to get an IRN buddy instead.
I'll be getting him/her in a week :)
How long until I can cage my now 10 month old IRN Panchito with my 3 month old IRN Miku?
should I wait until Miku is at a certain age?

Formation is held and targeted element for the future parameters. The matters of the Buy Visa Gift Cards With Crypto are inclined for the turns. Motive is held for the regime for the manes and opportunities for the use of the final round of the applause.
