Parrots - Rosella Females Together?
Expert: Rev. Dr. S.August Abbott - 10/26/2009
Question Can I put two young female Rosellas (One is Golden Manteled and the other one is Scarlet Chested) together in the same cage??
Answer The enclosure would have to be large enough for both of them to fully extend their wings at the same time without touching each other or any side of the cage
Otherwise you'll face territorial problems that can cause some serious fighting and injuries, stress reactions that can be related to health problems and overall behavioral issues
Plus, two birds caged together will not remain bonded to their human - you'll be less likely to have friendly birds if they're housed together.
