I've been thinking about making a new addition to the family. I'm just now seriously researching which type of parrot would fit for me. I'm home a lot and have a lot of space. Money is an issue so I wondered what the monthly fees and vet bills look like. I would like to offer premium care so don't hold back. I live in Vermont. 36 single and a Chef at my Brothers restaurant. I work 7 Hour days sometime working longer but my Mom is my neighbor and can check in on longer days if needed. Would and African Grey Parrot be alright being home alone for 7 hours? Due to their long life spans I feel like its a very big decision in making the right choice of bird. I will be going to get some reading material tomorrow to learn as much as I can. From there I will be looking to purchase a cage and a list of items that i found from one helpful website. Hopefully in the next few months I will be able to create the perfect habitat for my new friend. Thanks for any help I'm so excited already I can hardly sleep after watching all the you tube videos at night. Going to go bounce around my local pet stores tomorrow and hopefully handle a couple of birds. Start to get my Groove on. Thanks again and hopefully I will be posting my progress.
