I have never owned a bird before.
Recently I have been searching for a small companion/pet and have seen a few local dogs needing rehomed and that sort of thing. I have always owned dogs. But there is a family that is moving out of state and has to give up their 3 year old female sweetheart. They say she's a dream, never bitten, and learning to talk. I live in a two story apartment with my boyfriend. I just want the company a parrot appears to give. I spend a lot of time home alone as my bf works a much busier schedule than I do. As I have never owned a bird I just want to get a "reality check" if you will from experienced owners. I also understand that it is not polite to say "own" when referring to these birds as you are simply cohabiting the same home as them and they cannot be fully domesticated. I just didnt know how else to word all of this.
Any advice is greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
