Susie q

Hi all me and my wife got a lovebird and now susie hasen't come out of her hide until I cover the bird and it gets quiet. So my question is could she be scared of the bird. I am curious if you's have any information on this that is all Susie is doing great since my last question. Yes they are in the same room but they are on the other sides of the room.

I guess it depends on the size of the snake and the size of the bird ..

I don't think it's fear... I sorta live by "A hiding bp is a Happy bp" so maybe she's investigating the sudden change in the room? I don't see this as being a problem but if you have concerns about it, you can always move one of the animals out of the room...

She could possibly be picking up on new vibrations (sounds) and needs to get used to it?

Place the bird in the Bp enclosure, BEST way to find out  ;)
