What kind of pet bird should i get?

Question

I want to get a pet bird. I want one that can talk and that can talk well and easily.I don't want one that will constantly scream or that will be very loud. It doesnt really matter to me how big it is.But could you give me some advice on which one would be good at talking but that isnt very loud and somewhat easy to take care of. Thanks I appreciate it.

Answer 1

Quakers are really good talkers and they are a nice bird. They aren't a big bird. They are called the poor man's African Grey because they are such good talkers. But they don't cost near as much as an African Grey.

I would read as much on birds as you can before you get one. Also check out local pet shops and maybe find a breeder in your area you can visit. Get to know the birds before you pick the one you think is right for you.

You might also want to check out a bird forum such as this one http://www.myjungle.net/forum that way you can talk to other bird owners, and bird breeders.

You can also go here http://myjungle.net and check out the bird breeder directory and see if there are any bird breeders listed near you.

Good luck

Answer 3

If a bird has the ability to talk, it's most likely going to be loud every once in a while as well.

Birds are a higher maintenance pet that require a lot of time and interaction from you.

Not all birds learn to talk, even if you get a species that has a good reputation for it.

Don't buy a bird just because you want it to talk and be entertaining, you may end up being disappointed.

Answer 5

If you want a talking bird, be ready to put a lot of effort into taking care of it and making sure it's happy. Talking birds also tend to be the noisier ones, and they require lots of social interaction. If you want something easier to take care of and quiet you might be better off with some finches or something.
