I recently read an article (https://www.papageienpark-bochum.de...ne-jugend-haende-weg-von-zu-jungen-papageien/) it is in german, but you can use google translate to get the gist of it.
Essentially what is argued: Don't buy baby parrots (aka recently weaned/fledged), instead buy parrots that are about 10months old (or a bit older) as the social behaviour is not learned when they are young.
Opinions on this claim?
I suppose I in some ways see the logic, but am not sure, mainly because any scientific evidence is not mentioned.
