Can different bird breeds be pals?

[madisgiftpaiges]

We have a parakeet (Yoshi), quaker parrot (Tippi) and a CAG (Chicken). Tippi doesn't get along well with either of the other birds but on rare occasions, he is the "big" bird and often thinks he needs to show this to Chicken who is almost 4 times his size. Now Yoshi and Chicken get along great which I find odd but cute. Yoshi will jump on Chickens back and hitch a ride. Here are a couple of pics.

Oh yes it has happened here too with the two in the pic I posted above. Now I am rarely more than a wingspan away from them when they are out together. The parakeet still loves the quaker to death even though he lost a toe to that beaker...

I have the most addorable pic of my late Grumpy (GCC) cuddling his mate Wally (Quaker).

They were inseperable until he passed.
This pic is of Charlie (Moustache), Eddie (Alexandrian), Gracie (peachfaced Lovie) and Duster (Black Capped Conure in the background). Eddie and Charlie are budds and were inseperable from the moment I brought Eddie home. Gracie and Duster are buds and they do everything together. When one can't see the other they make this pathetic but addorable call to eachother.
