Of course this list is completely unrealistic. But whatever. :lol:


Haha, no less realistic than mine XD

My dream bird is an African Grey, but I don't think I'll ever have one, too much dust, and a male Eclecuts. And, what a coïncidence, there is a little baby male Eclectus coming to this home at the end of the month... My Christmas gift from me to me !

I would like to have a Raven, i've had several crows and they were great but i'd still like to have a baby Raven ( yes i know, illegal ), I had a chance a couple of yrs ago in AZ, man had Pecan orchard with Raven nest, he wanted to shotgun the ravens to get rid of them, so i found someone with a well drilling truck who could hoist me up to the nest (30') and remove it from the tree so maybe the ravens would leave ( i know , also Illegal) but alas no eggs or chicks, there was some pretty amazing things in the nest though, snake skins, barbed wire that sort of thing, im sure that this was early enough in the season that the ravens would rebuild else where, still if you see a raven nest on a power pole some where let me know before the power company removes it.

I'm fascinated with Hawkheads, that'd be my 'dream bird' for sure!

Mainly Moluccan Cockatoos and Palm Cockatoos, but that is for the distant future.
I'll never buy from any kind of breeder again anyway, so finding a rehome, especially of the latter, wouldn't be too easy. ;) (Even Moluccans are very rare here.)

I would also love a pair of Scarlet Macaws, Blue-throated Macaws, Slender-billed Cockatoo (C. tenuirostris, the "Cutthroat corella"), Red-billed Toucan, etc.

If time, money, and space weren't issues, I would love to have a Moluccan cockatoo. But I know from previous experiences with them that they are incredibly noisy and destructive and prone to feather plucking. I would only get one if I was absolutely sure I could give it my undivided attention for multiple hours a day.

I would also love to have a toucan and a sun conure. I've been in love with both for years. Which is funny because I'm normally a cat lover, but my little feathered guys have certainly grown on me.
