Where to get pet birds?

Question

i want a bird for my birthday but i'm not sure because i want one i can hold and touch

Answer 1

A cockatiel is a good choice. Hand-fed ones cost a little more, but you can be sure they're tame enough to be held. Try asking your local vet or pet store if they know anyone who breeds and sells hand-fed cockatiels. Good luck.

Even if you don't end up taking it out of the cage, it is my experience that cockatiels are more vocal and a lot more entertaining than parakeets.

Answer 2

You can try the web to look up local breeders in your area that breed the type of bird you are looking for - and breeders can usually sell you a hand tame bird (parakeets are a good breed).

Answer 3

Hello.

If you want the hand fed one ( young bird ) then search through the web and find a breeder near you ( breeders are much cheaper and better than pet stores . ) Once you get it , don't forget to hold & spend time with it every day to keep the bonding . Depending on your financial , a keet ( much cheaper ) than a cockateil . It is up to you to decide . Good luck . TM.
