hello to everyone!
my name is ariel and im a 26 yearold foreign vet student (in italy).
my former goffins cockatoo got stolen a couple of months ago and it broke my heart
it happend at my friends house that kept marley for me because i leagaly could not take her with me to italy. ive had her for almost four years.
since then im seriously concedering buying a green cheek conure in italy.
the thing is im a bit worried that my life style will harm the little one.
i have a girlfriend that lives 2 and a half hours train ride from my town.
i visit her every second weekend.
with proper training and socilizing do you think that a ggc could handle it?
also in the city she lives in its hard to find apartments, right now her apartment is okay with pets, but what if she has to move and she wouldnt find an adaquete place?
i live with my brother who could babysit the little guy some weekends, but i dont want to ask him for to much. also im affraid that it might ruin my relationship...
my girlfriend and i love animals and parrots in particular but were a bit hasitant because of our future.
i think i can be a great bird owner and make my parrot very happy.
my schedule may change but i can always have at leassssttt 2-3 hours per day, in very hectic days.
so i guess my question is what do you guys think? can a parrot handle a 2-3 hours train ride with appropriate care? (every two weeks or so) also a weekend at my girlfriends apartment.
should i get a ggc in your opinion? why?
thank you guys so much! (also sorry if my english isnt perfect, im an israeli)
