So in my research I've seen mixed advice on getting a newly weaned baby vs. getting an older bird.
I'm a rescue person, and I honestly hate having puppies/kittens versus an adult animal whose personality is already developed. I would think I would prefer that route in birds too, especially with the adolescent behavior changes and such. I'm not opposed to buying from a breeder - I support both responsible breeding and rescue - but I would think a rehome or rescue whose personality is established might be easier to work with.
What is your thought? At this point my family is leaning toward a CAG or Eclectus.
