Hi everyone! I moved back to Michigan about 2 years ago. While spending time with my sister and her family, I was introduced to birds....I worked with a 1 year old sun conure hand training for them so it could get it's permanent home. Most of their birds are large and cannot be handled by anyone except my brother-in-law. My bf has a bg macaw that also prefers men but will talk to me and take treats. The macaw seems a bit lge to me....I am intimidated sometimes... I am interested in getting a feathered friend for myself, but unsure what to get. I don't want a parakeet or cockatiel...but I'm not real interested in having a bird bite my finger off either. I love the med. to lge birds. I love to chat with a talking bird and would love to be able to teach or communicate with the bird. I have a lot of time to work with a bird. What do you recommend? Why?
