If your mom is on board, I think it would be nice for you.
However, you would need a separate cage for the bird. First, for quarantine, second so the bird will bond with you, and thirdly because there could be a problem with three birds in one cage.

We do have one! But would it be ok if I put the smaller cage on top of the big one with a plastic divider?

It sounds okay. When you get the new bird out, you may find it wants to fly to the other cage rather than stay with you. You may need to cover up the cage in that case. That's what I am finding with my new cockatiel. He is finger tame, but if he gets into sight of the others' cage, he flies to it immediately and won't stay on my hand. So, I am keeping him in a separate room for now. Or, I cover up the others.

Ok! Thank you! Do you have any suggestions? Like should I put toys in his cage? Or just a few perches and 2 dishes? This my first baby from the pet store I got my other from a family member that owned them for 2 years

I think a couple of small toys and a swing would be nice.

I know that getting a new pet is very exciting and so much fun, but if your family is struggling to come up with ways to raise funds to pay your deceased dog's final vet bill, then it just make no sense to buy a new bird, and perches and swings, etc. to outfit his new cage. I do agree with Santa that your dog's bills should be paid first, and then once you've been able to save again, a new bird would be wonderful. Truly, I'm not judging your situation. I know how it feels to live on a tight budget. Might I suggest that you let the cremation of your dog go. His spirit isn't in those ashes. Just pay his final bill and try to move on, always remembering him in your heart.

The only reason is that my parents want me to come up with the funds!
