Cockatiel help
I have a pair of cockatiels in a parrot cage. One of my neighbours is moving and has asked me to take his cockatiel. I've seen her outside sometimes and she seems to have deformed feet. They don't curl round, they seem to curl sideways. He's adapted her cage with flat perches and she seems to get about ok and climbs quite happily. He said she flys around his living room ok too. I think I'm going to take her, I was wondering if it would ever be possible to buy a larger cage and get all three birds living together, or wether my pair would reject her because of her funny feet? Also, I don't think she has a very good diet, the food in her dishes seems to be the rubbish pet shop mix. Will I have to change her food gradually, or can I just swap her straight over?
