I used to breed and hand feed cockatiels, Lovebirds and parakeets. Had Zebra Finches that bred like crazy. I've had a yellow and gold macaw. Mexican Red Headed Amazon pair, Yellow Naped Amazon Pair and a Male Soloman Islanda Ecletus. Also had Red Rump parakeets. I thinks thats about it.

Oh yeah. Mine were great, the female did all of the talking lol and the male would tell her to Shut Up if she got going. The female was a good talker and funny as hell. But never really got noisy.

Well i currently have had just the small members of the parrot family. After the set of parakeets i got a cockatail that talks. I don't know if i could handle the big birds cus i had a bad experience with one. This african grey parrot bit the shit out of me when i fed it some crackers. That bird was the devil. If i were to get one, i would definately get them when they are a baby.

Getting a bird as a baby is the best way to go. Alot of adult parrots are mean because they weren't raised right or they just dont get alot of attention. And u are lucky to have a cockateil that talks. Because out of the ones I had I've never had one that talked. They are very rare. :-D

I have a 14year old cockateil and an african grey. The cockatiel talks a little and is still friendly. The grey is not friendly but talks up a storm and repeats every noise and conversation it seems like.

African greys are bad about that

I used to work for a Bird Rescue Non-Profit (Rehab). I stopped working there a few years ago and got stuck with homework: a 15 year old formerly abused Umbrella Cockatoo named "bird'. Her nickname: pidgeon fucker.

I had a beautiful colored sun conyer names skittles, he was the prettiest bird ive ever seen.
He could talk a little and was extremely smart and sweet
he would cuddle up with you and watch tv
besides the fact he shit alot, we still loved skittles.
he was such a funny bird to watch him play around and talk and just being a bird.
