We are renewed bird parents. After losing our friend Woodstock some years back, and a big move overseas, we have been without birds for a while. This Christmas my husband got two parakeets to get started, which our son named Ralph and Felix (from Wreck it Ralph). Then in March when we visited a pet store we saw two sun conures that we absolutely fell in love with. It was a complete impulse decision (although we've talked about getting more birds for years, so we knew the commitment we were making), but Ben and Jerry got to come home with us. Man was that a big change! All the birds get along great, but the noise and the mess certainly keeps us busy 24-7! They are so much fun, and all the kids (yes, there's four kids that also add to the noise and mess) absolutely adore them.
I would love to one day have an African Grey, but the youngest of our kids needs to be a bit older first, I think.
