It was like he had 4 dogs, his mother and a wife living with him. His bird was very spoiled and loud and vocal about it. Saying he wanted to be part of the action is not an exaggeration. Be prepared to treat him/her like a child that never grows up. I couldn't handle the constant loud screaming.

He didn't train his bird very well.

Yeah....it is like having a 3 year old for the rest of your life

I wouldn't recommend having a n=bird like this if you can't give him at least 5 hours a day. We did both work for years so that's not an issue but you will need to have him out for at least an hour before work and with you at night for a couple of hours.

We take him to the river house and he is cool in the car or the plane for the road trip and we leave him at the house during the day in his cage while we are out on the water. As long as you give him a little "Out time" before bed and he knows you are there he's cool.

Ours doesn't scream much but if you scare him you will think someone was trying to kill him......but that's not very often!!


Happy Birthday Chrissie BTW....hope you have a great day!!!
