Need some help and reassurance :D regarding moustache parrots

I really want to do the right thing here, I have owned various species over the years... my heart really wants another Galah but my partner will simply not tolerate the potential noise. *sigh*

So I have attempted to choose a species which I think he will be pleased with that I will also love. Its a change from my usual little cuddlepots... I have a deposit on a Moustache Parrot.

Today a very friendly young wild galah dangled from a tree branch and squarked a hello at me (he was about 1m from my head, he seemed to enjoy scaring the bajesus out of me LOL). All I can think about since is my old galah Larry. My last bird was a GCC as well so I have mostly just had the cuddly little comical muffins.

Basically... originally I thought it would be lovely to have something different that my partner may identify with more (a not so cuddly bird who has the potential to talk) but now I am feeling a bit of panic. I will be devastated if a moustache parrot does not fit my wants as much as I hope. I loved the comical nature of my galah and conure more than the cuddliness, I dont feel the need for a cuddly bird but I do feel the need for a bird who will want to participate in my activities and have a good natured sense of humour about himself.

I could be being paranoid due to my rocky past with parrots... perhaps if there are moustache owners out there who could give me a bit of insight into what its like to own one, I might feel a bit more reassured
I had a girl on my facebook profile have a big rant about how moustache parrots are louder than alexandrines, they do not talk and are unpleasent animals! She is the only person I have an opinion from so would love to hear first hand experience from owners.

No moustache owners willing to contribute?

I own a female moustache, got her when she was 2 and 1/2 years old. Still does not like hands but does like to sit on my shoulder. She is a touch me not bird and I believe other owners will have similar experiences. She talks a little but is relatively quiet. She does have a loud melodic call.

OH! You are just the person to talk to! You have an australian king parrot as well, I have been curious about them as pets.

In our family we have myself, my partner and my daughter. I wanted a bird who would be happy to be with everyone and is a laid back bird. Out of the Alexandrines you have, the king parrot and the moustache which do you think would best fit such a situation?

The Australian King is also a touch me not bird, but she is quite friendly and will sit on you as well. Bella has a very laid back disposition. If you are looking fora cuddle bug, she is not for you, however, she is a very sweet bird. She does not bite and can entertain herself very well. Alphie, the moustache, is similar, but she is more anxious and skittish. As well, Bella will just poop wherever
And sometimes on me!

I have an adult male Moustache of indeterminate age- we found him as an adult in a tree.

He's not super cuddly but he does like (limited) head scratches and kisses. He frequently wants to sit on my shoulder, but almost always wants to be at least nearby and part of the flock. He's not particularly hand-shy or skittish.
I can't compare his noise level to any birds besides budgies, really, but I haven't found him to be very loud. He has a very limited vocabulary, but he does use his "words" preferentially over natural parrot vocalizations- he does use those occasionally as well, at least twice a day, but very short duration. He usually protests my leaving the apartment.

My boyfriend fairly recently moved in, and he adores the increased activity. Icarus is a funny little guy.

Thank you guys

I am so confused now :/ Maybe an alexandrine would be a better fit for our family :/ I dont know.

My alexandrine loves everyone, especially children. He doesn't like to be petted, though... He has never bitten. He has a beautiful voice and chats away... I would definitely recommend an alexandrine... I know nothing about Mustache parrots.
