Hi all new to the forum looking into getting a new bird
here are a few things I'm looking for in a bird
wanting to know if an Alex is the right fit and what the pros and cons are ?
I have had exprriance with birds so am not a 1st timer
I have 2 children (7yrs and 15 months )
2 outside dogs and a cat who does hunt outside birds but has been ok with my other inside birds in past
I'm an at home mum at current but hope to return to work in next few years ( I know you have to start out how you mean to continue so won't overload attention onto it but will still give it plenty )
I'm wanting a bird that is known to be fairly stable in their nature and not nippy
I will get my children semi involved with the bird training etc but I want something that's not going to be clingy to me and diminent to my children
a nice social family oriantated type bird
I want a bird who is playful and likes to be involved with the family but is just as happy playing by themselves
an intellegent bird who enjoys training and has the ability to talk
something that's known to be not overly noisey ( with two kids and a playstation addict partner the least I need is a bird competing for loudest in the house )
Sorry this Is so long but the more you know the more you can help me choose the right bird
My other choice is a Quaker but i belive they CSM be nippy, protective and noisey
