Happy New Year, everyone!
I'm curious about the little parrot and wonder if AllWasStrippedFromMe has set an appointment to meet with it's breeder.


Unfortunately not. Someone beat me to it. Instead of a parrot, I've decided to get a Budgerigar.
Still pondering about which one to go for...


Instead of? you still are getting a parrot :) just a teeny tiny parrot.

:thumbsup: was thinking the exact same thing, but I know in swedish we usually refer to keets as keets and parrots as parrots, might be the same in norweigan well, keets are parrots. But... their not commonly spoken of as parrots here, not sure why really. but their quite cool!

Btw a more suitible choice for the cages you mentioned. minimum size here (in sweden) for a budgie is 70cmx45cm and 60cm high (27.5inX17.7in and 23.6in high, thought sicne there were lot less translations of measurements in this post I would actually post the sizes in inches as well for everyone not using the metric scale to know).

a budgie is a parrot.

and by the way, i love your grammar. :thumbsup: :lol:
If it looks like a duck, and quacks like a duck, we have at least to consider the possibility that we have a small aquatic bird of the family anatidae on our hands.
