As we know, coexistence is very important between the same and different species. Even among the same species, coexistence is sometimes difficult in the same environment.
But what happens when we talk about the same cage? No environments to run away from when we don't get along with our neighbors? It looks complicated.
At PeritoAnimal we will help you to clarify these doubts, so that your pets can share spaces in harmony. And one of the common questions among bird lovers is whether can match gould diamonds with canaries.
Specific care
We usually associate the canary with a cage and solitude or living with its own species. But what happens if we pair it with other birds in the same cage? We often think that being in cages separated by species is the most correct. However, veterinarians and owners of both species feel that this is not entirely correct.
If we have canaries in one cage and diamonds in another, but in the same environment, the effect will be almost the same. Due to proximity, the same problems can occur as in the same cage. We are afraid of diseases that could infect each other or, worse, of cross-species. But this doesn't happen, since share almost the same diseases.
On the other hand, if talk about singing, or the songs that can emit both copies, we must know that the Australian parakeets usually "silence" the canaries. They are small and great to live with, but you'll notice how they don't even let them start with the desired repertoire. for this reason and why eat different seeds, is that their coexistence is not advisable.
Coexistence problems
We can mix exotic birds with canaries whenever we observe harmony in the cage. O canary is normally a very peaceful bird, so living with other species activates it and helps it to develop in a better way. Canary singing is very characteristic, but if we mix it with other birds that have a beautiful song, we can see that both can develop their repertoire and not, as sometimes happens, that one silences the other.
We must be on the lookout for attacks when we clean the cage and put in fresh food and water, or simply the space each one occupies. If we manage to live together in harmony, it will be very beautiful to see, as they will have a partner to live with.
Non-compatible species
More than a detailed list of non-compatible birds, I will mention some general characteristics that will help you when choosing the ideal companion.
Canaries being able to live with parakeets is already a reality. But we should try to avoid any bird that has a worse character than these birds and a stronger beak (agapornis or rosellas), since these unions are never good, much less for the peaceful canary. We should also avoid parrots and Monk Parakeets, because despite having a good character on the day they are in a bad mood, it could be the end of some of the canaries, although they only intend to scare them away.
Therefore, a rule that you should not forget is do not mix birds of different sizes or who do not have a mild and affectionate temperament, who can adapt to life with other similar species.
