Help me decide....

Okay so I have had a baby quaker on hold for a week in another state and he will be weaned by this friday, i have never met him, however I have been offered another goffins cockatoo that needs a good home as well this week and can only take one in at the moment....which do I choose? This is tuff...they cost the same price, I ave a goffins already, and Im going to let her meet the other one today to se her reaction....so which do I pick? Im horribly confused....If Bindi hates this one I wont get him, but if she loves him ill be so sad for the quaker...any thoughts?

Well you already had the one on hold for weeks. Where do you live? Perhaps someone else could help the goffin? You can't rely on hopes that both goffins will get along.
