Hi,
I am sorry for the loss of your parakeet. How old was he? In my opinion it would not be wise to purchase a new parakeet at this time, unless you want the bird; i.e. don't get the bird for the remaining parakeet. Why? There are no guarantees that they will get on together.
If you decide to purchase a new bird please remember to quarantine it for at least 30 days. This is very important. Then, you can gradually introduce the two birds to each other and if they get along, great, but if not then you must be prepared to keep them apart.

Soo sorry to hear about your parakeet.
I kind of agree with Sivin, that you can't just go get another one and expect them to get along. Good luck with what you decide to do.
Yes, I remember you from the old board. 'Happy belated Birthday' and hope to hear from you again and let us know how things are doing, and up-dates.
Welcome back, Alice

I'm sorry to hear about your loss. I agree about not rushing into getting another bird.
I remember you, and "welcome back"!

Hello. Yes, we remember you. Actually, today I visted a Harry Potter website and was noticing that they permit kids to visit. They have an option for parents to restrict parts of the site that could be innapropriate, but mention that not all sites do even that.
I'm sorry your budgie died. I didn't know it was that iffy to introduce a new bird, especially since I think a male would be less demanding. I don't have experience with multiple birds so I didn't know.
Good luck; nice to hear from you again.
PS. what does your screen name mean?

Good Question Michael. Maybe she'll give us a shorter name to use on postings.
I'm glad she's still interested in birds, and maybe in the future she will get another one or two. She's a lovely person to think about her mates feelings, and taking the time to ask questions.
Alice

Don't hear from Claire, due to her being too young to be a member. Hopefully Claire will find us again, when she's old enough.
Again sorry about your loss and welcome back.
BTW, who is ryan cabrera?

Haven't heard from Claire, but maybe she'll find this site again too.
It was too bad that there were some trouble makers at the time and something had to be done. We enjoyed you & Claire posting & your interest in birds. I hate the words 'kicked off the board' I hope that you understand that it was'nt anything personal. Keep in touch. Alice
ryan cabrera?

[[[ CUTE ]]] Only to be young again. Sorry I never heard of him. Guess I still live with the 50's & 60's music. Like Elvis etc. LOL Sure had my crushes too as a teen. But than I had to grow up, get married, have 4 kids, and oldest daughter played 'Y.M.C.A' over & over that it stuck in my head I couldn't go to sleep. LOL Alice

Alice you took the words out of my mouth, "oh to be young again". But then I wouldn't have my granddaughters, so I'll take my age anytime!
Ryan is a cutie.
