What type of bird should I get?
Hi, I currently own two budgies. Now I’m interested in getting a larger bird from a breeder. Where I live, there aren’t that many breeders, so my choices are limited. I’m looking for a small to medium sized bird that would like to “hang out” with me or whatever and bond to me. I have an extra cage about 18 x 18 x 24 but I know I’ll have to buy a larger one and that’s fine.
Here are my choices:
Cockatiel
Quaker parakeet
Indian Ringneck
Rosella
Meyers
Please avoid suggesting birds not on the list or making cruel, stupid responses. No one finds them funny!
Thanks!
A cockatiel is a great beginner bird(for someone who does not have experience with larger more demanding parrots. Since you do not have parrot experience(and I am not putting you down or anything like that, just trying to give you info) Quakers and Ringnecks can be very demanding, hard to tame birds. I have a quaker parrot, and she is a single person bird(and it not even me she loves). She took to my grandmother and hates everyone else. Ring necks and Meyers can be the same way.
Cockatiel are great birds and often overlooked for the bigger, talkative parrots. My cockatiel is a great bird, she is quiet, and not as messy as my quaker and conure. Birds thrive on love and attention, so IMO all birds need basically the same amount of play time and attention.
Good luck.
