No you are full of bullshit. Do you even own any birds? Probably not.

The psyche of a bird is not nearly as delicately fragile as you seem to
believe.
Whenever I bring a new bird home it does get a lot more attention than the
birds that I've had for a while- probably 10X more. Do my other birds act
any differently? No.

So the answer is yes, I do have birds. Currently I have nine of them.
During the many years that I have owned birds I have educated myself on the
subject of pet birds. I 've learned many many things that have turned out
to be old misconceptions that probably came from old (and not so old) books
but are still being puked up by people who don't know any better and don't
seem to want to. I then take the time to learn what the current facts and
theories are.

My suggestion for you is to stop vomiting up outdated misinformation. When
people inform you that your information is not correct use it as an
opportunity to learn rather than as an opportunity to show your bad
temperament.

Do you change your routine, No. The new bird may get more attention but
they expect that. Try changing your routine and see if that doesn't cause
some problems. I guarantee it will, and I don't recommend that you do it.
By routine. You have a certain way you feed, or take out the birds. Birds
do know what babies are and they know that a baby requires more attention
then them. Don't think that they are stupid, they know exactly when its
time to eat, when its time to come out, and know what gets your attention.

What Facts?, and Theories, are just that Theories, unproven, untested, and
definately not recommended to be relied upon. And yes 99% of the OLD books
that are out there, are bunk, lies, and misconceptions that have been handed
down for generations.

Whatever has been tried and found true is a Fact. Whatever babblings you
put down are Theory and need to be proven. Put the facts down, maybe I will
learn something, but your words are just that words, and as my Yellow Nape
would say, "BLAH BLAH BLAH"

I only give back what I recieve. As my Poem

"Peaceful Transition" states.

Eye for an Eye and Tooth for a Tooth,
You come against me and I come against you.
You piss me off and I piss off you.
Its only fair and that's the truth.
So treat me like, I would treat you.
And you won't come out looking like a fool.


Tony

Giving the vast majority of my attention to a new bird is a drastic change
in routine.


Wait just a minute here. In your initial response, you said "Your first
bird gets everything first. Food, water, loving, and being let out of the
cage. If you pay more attention to the new bird, especially if it is a baby
and you are hand feeding it, then the older bird will say where is my time.
What about me."

Your latest drivel is now contradictory to your first puddle of vomit.
A) if it is a baby and you are hand feeding it, then the older bird will say
where is my time. What about me.
B) Birds do know what babies are and they know that a baby requires more
attention then them.

Choose one. It can't be both ways.

What facts? are you serious? Do you really think that birds are so
enigmatic that there are absolutely no known facts that apply to birds?

Perhaps I should have said 'currently accepted ideas, principles, and
practices' rather than theories.

Not necessarily.

You said "Getting another bird and keeping it in another cage is really no
problem. The only thing you have to do is follow the pecking order. Your
first bird gets everything first. Food, water, loving, and being let out of
the cage.

That' not a fact, but you seem to be trying to pass it off as one. The FACT
that my own personal experience is contrary to what you say proves that it
can not be a fact.

Then you should know that all the useless information that was given to you
about birds by God only knows who, isn't doing any of it's new recipients
any good either.

And so your own personal experience makes it the norm? If 100 people are
telling me that it does happen and I have seen it in my own birds, and you
being just 1 person tell me that it isn't so. I would tend to believe that
it can happen and that you are very blessed with your birds. So what is the
problem?

No. See how easily you assume the wrong thing.

When a bird is put in a situation that could cause it to become "jealous" it
may react with "jealousy" and it may react just as readily with no reaction
at all. To imply that a bird WILL act a certain way in a given situation
when there are other options is just plain stupid unless it's your bird and
you know how your bird reacts to the specific situation.

Your advice (since you insist on giving it) would be less criticizable if
you gave it in more general terms and as possibilities rather than using the
"this is how it is" approach.
