I have had my U2 for about 6 years and my G2 for about 2 years. The G2 is in love with my U2 and my he usually tolerates her, but she is insistent on mating with him. He is not very respectful of smaller birds and has shown jealousy, so I don't let them out together. His body language when they are out together makes me nervous and I don't want to risk either being injured. They have learned to live the fact that when one is out, the other can't be. I wish it were one big, happy family, but it's not. If you have the slightest inkling that there might be trouble, don't risk it. The fact is that if one was determined to get to the other, you wouldn't be able to react quickly enough to stop it. I wish I had better news. Patty Hi Winnie’s Mom,

My Q is how do u get the 2 of them to get along. My U2 is female and G2 male. My U2 is about 1 or 2 yrs younger than my U2 & they are quite jealous of each other. We adopted my U2 3 yrs ago and the G2 was adopted about 3 months ago. Thanks for your help. Winnies Mom mariekeehl@ymail.com Patti, I noticed that u have a U2 & G2, I have the same.
