Hi, I'm new here, but I've been lurking for a while.
My husband and I are brand new to birds and we have decided to add an ekkie to our family. We've been doing our research and we've decided that they would be best suited to our home,as it's just me and my hubby. We have no plans to have kids and we've the time to devote to him/her.
We won't be getting him/her until june/July as we have a lot we need to sort in the house first, like painting the bedrooms and kitchen, new flooring in the living room, upgrading kitchen appliances and cookwear, parrot proofing the areas we will let it be in, to name a few things.
So my husband has asked me to put together an indepth shopping list of... Well.... Everything a new ekkie will need and I need help because I'm out of my depth for what's needed. Buying for a new dog, no problem, I can do that with my eyes closed. New bird, no clue!
Please help. I don't want a situation where I have the bird and then be like "huh I could really use with x item right now"
I already have a CAV that's 10minutes away from me, and I've already chosen the insurance company for the bird, which has extensive cover including cover for theft and lost/found reward.
Thank you for your help!
