So, in the homes with multiples, which bird would be classified as the H.B.I.C.(head bird in charge)? You know, the self-appointed leader of the flock. The one the others wait for when trying new stuff. The boss bird. I my home, that would be one of my budgies Gadget. He's fearless, and even the conure respects his authoritah!:)

Presently have six Greenwing Macaw (17 yo), Red Fronted Macaw (12 yo), Red Lored Amazon (17 y.o.), Lilac Crowned Amazon (about 43 y.o.) and a Congo African Grey (11 y.o.)
Panama Amazon (1 Y.O.)
THAT WOULD BE ME!

The "unofficial" flock leader of my flock is my red lored amazon...

That's mainly because my Greenwing doesn't have a "dominance" bone in her body. If she ever decided to assert herself, she would be in charge. She's about triple the size of everyone else, including my other macaw.
