      They're a lot harder to deal with than other pets and people don't realize that. They need constant attention and they need freedom to roam and fly as they poop all over the house. They're also noisy so don't get one if you have neighbors that will complain.
      My Quaker parrot is turning 28 this year and he's always been quite a handful. He's always been free to roam the house but he normally stays at his cage. He's never been sick, very healthy and he's quite a meanie even though I hand raised him. You can hear him squawk down the street, seriously. I always warn people about the cons of parrots because ppl ignorantly bring them home and then realize how difficult they can be.

    I got a lovebird fischer.
    2 years ago, I was browsing an internet store for parrots and this one guy was selling this rather odd parrot, it was a fischer. At the time I didn't know any types except for macaws and cockatoos but the way the fischers had these white circles around their eyes was funny to me, so i bought her.
    My expectations went like this: She woul,d arrive, be afraid of me for a week or 2, she would sit in the cage until she got comfortable, then I train her to fly to me.
    None of these expectations were met...
    She came with a daring personality, when i put my hand near the cage she would charge at my fingers and attempt to bite and i did get bitten, those beaks are strong, so i let her sit in her cage for the day in my room then the following day, I let her out. The moment I opened the cage door she went flying out and landed on my head. She'd start playing with my hair then going for my ears, and after a week she would just like to sit on my shoulder and play with me, what she didn't like are my fingers.
    I don't know whether this was because the environment she was in or something but she hated fingers, you put them close and she bites so i never really got to touch her, i could only just let her be and act like she isn't there. I did try to get her to stop attacking my finger by putting on gloves (to protect my fingers) then start massaging her head with them, this helped a bit so I could pat her without gloves after it, and until now I can only do pat her head and massage her beak and I've decided thats good enough cause I don't know what she went through.
    ( Disclaimer she actually now likes head pats and beak massages, she even closes her eyes when i do it sometimes, usually when she doesn't like something she bites or moves away)
    Anyhow, I even got her to start kissing, just kept getting my lips bitten until she figured out my lips wont attack her and then she started doing it to me, she even comes over to my mouth just waiting for it to happen its just adorable.
    But there is one thing I don't get about her, she is crazy, she doesn't get afraid of any other bigger animals, I have a medium sized bird like 4 times bigger than her and she runs after it and bites it, I even have a cat, good thing shes a calm one cause one day I just walked in my living room and saw my fischer just sitting on the floor in front of the cat and what it looked like she was disciplining the cat cause she was literally screaming at her and the cat was just sitting there not doing anything, how it even happened? i forgot to close the cage properly so my fischer just opened the door on her own and flew out then decided to converse with the cat.
    Anyways thanks for reading about my crazy bird and have a good day.

    If you're lucky, birds are full of personality. It's the birds that don't bond that you have to be worried about. If your bird doesn't bond, you will have problems with the bird's health. If they want to interact and be with you all the time, count yourself lucky, you have a pal for life.

    We had a hen Budgerigar [Budgie] and I taught her to speak. She followed me everywhere in the house, knew exactly when I was getting home from work and would greet me at the door. My wife said that just before I got home, she would go sit on the couch, look out the window and wait for me. Unfortunately that love got her killed. I went to the pantry to get something but it was just out of reach so I went up on tip-toe. As I did, she went under my heal - well, you know what happened next! I was gutted. My wife and I had a wee cry over our Budgie. Truly, birds are quite remarkable and are much more intelligent than most people give them credit. They are also very loving.

    I love that he doesn't keep his bird caged up 24/7, has a large cage, and gives his bird attention but no matter how much attention you give your animal, it's never enough.

      That's not always a great idea-- some birds get territorial and can hurt other birds over their living space. I have kept birds (linnies too!) my whole life and especially female birdies can get like that, or when they're elderly and get used to having humans as their flock mates. Every birdie has their own unique personality, it's important to cater to that!
      If you can't give your birdie friend enough attention during the day though (at least 4 hours a day of undivided attention, and 8 hours of free roam around the house is a good indicator) it's good to get them a friend. Just try to introduce another bird to the flock when they're both still younger so they can get used to each other, and make sure they have separate cages they can retreat to.

      Many things can happen if you do that. In many cases, the birds can lose interest in the human and favour spending time with each other. Territorial fights, and particularly jealousy fights, are dangerous. If birds seem to simply tolerate each other, then it is an incident bound to happen. You can own a bird of any species without extensive knowledge of their psychology and behaviour, but only in the case of a unique bird.

I rescued the Grey after a friend called me saying someone abandoned it in his cage at a house with no food or water. By the time I got the Grey, he had plucked all his chest feathers out. Very depressed! We have NO idea what he has been thru, but I have become his "flock", I am the only person he will allow to handle him, feed him, pet him, etc. He CANNOT have a mate/companion given the circumstances I acquired him altho I would love for him to. All I can do is be there for him, be HIS mate, give him toys, attention and endless love.🥰

    This warms my heart. I've been in the avian field myself for 30+yrs now. Having hands on experience with everything from Warblers to Bird of Prey. And i've also owned or should i say BEEN OWNED by many different parrot species. My two current fids being a Senegal and Black Capped Conure. And it's true folks "Linnies" or Lineolated parakeets are typically very quiet easy going birds. But this does go to show everyone that each animal has it's own distinct personality. For example, my Senegal Parrot Kia is EXTREMELY quiet and pretty much a perch potato. You'd think she was a Pionus parrot more than a Poicephalus parrot. My Black Capped Conure Cricket is the complete opposite fun loving always ready to go. Very typical behavior of the Pyrrhura Conure family. This is a blue mutation Linnie as the dominant color is green. I have always felt the more you put into ANY animal the more you will get out of them. Parrots being extremely social animals need that kind of stimulation to thrive fully. And it's quite clear Dipper is getting that and then some from his owner. Being out of the cage and just with his owner is pretty much what most parrots want. They are birds after all and HIGHLY HIGHLY intelligent ones at that. They are not meant to be cooped up in cages and just forgot about. That's why i always advocate to people when they ask my advice. Make sure you do as much research on the given species your interested in. And to start small before you go big. Just because one talks or is more colorful doesn't mean it will be a better pet long term. Budgies are often underrated when it comes to their talking ability. So i would definitely start their before jumping right into owning a Green Winged Macaw or Moluccan Cockatoo. Two very large birds i would NOT recommend for beginners.

    "Hey, man, I hear you talking about Stinky, your tiny bird, and I gotta say, worrying about stepping on him? That's some real love right there. But hey, here's the deal, unlike cats, birds got wings, man! They're born to soar, to dance in the open air let me tell you, those birds are like fighter jets up there. So, why not let Stinky spread his wings again? Let him feel the wind beneath his feathers, let him reclaim his rightful place in the air. You'll see, it's a whole new level of freedom for you both. Fly high, my friend, fly high." You’ll just have to be careful when you leave the house.

    Never heard of a Linnie, but he sure is beautiful! I once had a yellow parakeet and she was the sweetest thing. Her name was Tambo, she loved corn on the cob and she wouldn’t/couldn’t fly after an accident in which a quarter of her breast feathers and many under her wing were plucked out. They eventually regrew but she never flew after that. I could walk outside with her on my shoulder without fear of her flying away. I bawled like a baby when she died (and I was a grown woman in my 30’s)! 😢 🐤💔

      Linnie is short for Lineolated Parakeet aka Barred Parakeet if you decide to look into them more. :)
      Tambo sounds perfectly precious. I love budgie parakeets. They have so much love and personality packed into that tiny little body! Losing them is tough but I'm glad we're able to share them with others in stories like yours about Tambo. ❤

    It takes a quiet mind to see how a birds personality is. Their personalities are bigger than themselves. I had the privilege and it was a wondrous gift . I guess when you’re that small ya have be the boss of your life, but they relent and show you such love - even if you aren’t a bird.

      Yes and no. With some species (I don't know much about linnies), it can be tricky to introduce a second bird after the first is mature. I suggest getting two at the same time, if/when possible. Even if they start out good friends, you have to be prepared to have two cages and separate out-of-cage time if they (suddenly) don't get along. Birds who don't get along still offer companionship to each other by calling to and watching each other.

    You are such a lucky guy! Dipper reminds me of my Toshy. Toshy died almost 40 years ago, but I still think of him so often. You could talk to him, he understood a lot of words. He wanted to be everywhere with the family, liked to drive in cars and sat in his own armchair - even outside in nature. He flew away and got lost in the woods 3 times and still found his way back. At the end of his life, he liked to have a little beer with my father and then lay on his pillow, a little tipsy. I will never forget him, he was so unique.
