I'm thinking about buying a Quaker Parrot. What do you know about them?...

[QUOTE="Jane, post: 1548746, member: 218349"] Pet birds in general are not cuddly, friendly, happy beings, but some individual ones are. You get out of them what you put into them, that means several hours a day of attention. They can be as loud as a conure, and just as annoying. They can easily draw blood when they bite. A small cockatiel cage will be way too small for them, think largest cage you can afford to buy. Dogs won't bother them too much. They don't live on seed alone, expect to feed them cooked rice, pellets, fruits, vegetables, etc on a daily basis. Scrupulous hygiene is essential for the cage and surrounding areas. Overheated non-stick cookware gives off a gas which can kill your bird. Keep them out of the kitchen and drafty areas. Birds usually choose one person they like and either ignore or try to harm the other family members. They live a long time so you have to commit to a lifetime with them. [/QUOTE]
