Maybe talk to each animal about 'the other' and thereby deliberately mentioning 'the other's' name?
Hi, I have a sun conure and am getting a african grey in April, and would like to know if anyone has any idea's on introducing them to eachother. Our sunconure is already jealous when one of our dogs and/or cats come over for some "mommy" attention so I was hoping someone could give me some advice to make it easier on both birds...Thanks....

Well, we go this weekend to meet our "new baby girl", I love the name Laidan (pronounced Lay-dan-meaning gray lady) or Keely...but not sure which would be best...That is a great idea...I'm kind of worried about Sammie our conure and the new addition meeting, just because of the way he treats our other animals...(dogs and cats) he doesn't allow them to lay on me. he runs and tries to bite them...of course we have close supervision with them at all times, but we can't have him upset w/ the new baby...I guess we have to wait until we bring her home.
Try what I suggested above. Maybe it'll help
Thank you so much...I will.
Oooh, that's a toughy. I hope that time and positive reinforcement will help out once your new baby is home. By the way, I love the name Laidan!!
After spending time with the new bird, always give Sammie attention and a treat, and continue to talk to both of them while interacting with the new bird. That's all that I can think of right now. Are you planning on having their cages nearby each other?
yes, but not so close that sammie can "hop" on over to her cage...just close enough where they can see eachother and talk to eachother.. thanks for all your advice I'm going to try everything to ensure that they're happy.
Keep us posted, please
