  1. Hello i have been owned by many Monk parakeets also called Quakers  they are sweet angels that love to talk and just hang out with you sometimes they can be nippie at times but what big cant be lol

    one thing about a quaker they are a messy bird they will toss thier p**p out of the cage i have to put hard plastic on the wall where their cage was so they could not toss p**p on my walls

    cages need to be cleaned twice a day the food and water dishes get nasty so i have been cleaning mine twice a day as well

    good luck and i hope i might of helped a bit


  2. Quaker parrots are also known as Monk parakeets.  Before you get one, I would check with your state's laws regarding ownership.  They are illegal in some, and others have different regulations regarding them.  Here in Virginia, all quakers must be closed banded, but other than that ownership is legal.  The website that the previous person gave you should have all the information you need. Here is a different website gives what laws are in place in which state regarding quakers.  http://www.quakerville.com/qic/statelaw....

  3. I have 2.  I have been answering your other questions.  Have you checked the answers?  What other advice do you need?

    There are websites and yahoo groups out there specifically for Quakers.  www.birdsnways2.com is great and they have a quaker chat as well as other chats.

    There is a book by Mattie Sue Atthan published by Barrons about the Care of Quaker Parrots.  Also, they are featured in Bird Talk magazine this month.  You can get a copy right now from Petsmart or Petco.  $5

  4. Quakers are great pets.  Lots of people own them.  This website has plenty of information.
