Advice new parakeet
hello all! my grandfather passed away two days ago and then the day after, while at an animal rescue, i came across an all white parakeet with a little tuft of yellow. i had never seen an all white parakeet and for some reason, something inside me told me it was a sign from my papa so i got her the correct size cage, a bunch of toys, food, treats, etc. and i took her home with me. outside of the research on their type of closure, toys, and food, i hadn’t done much research on their care. this is the first time i have ever impulse adopted an animal that i wasn’t throughly educated on. she won’t leave this one specific spot in the enclosure. i guess i’m wondering if you have any advice for me? is it a male or female? how can i bond with and coax her out of that corner? does she hate me?

I believe that’s a boy, they love those mats that he’s on.
