Hello all!! I am so glad I found this forum as I am brand new. I am a huge animal lover and am all about giving my pets the best care. I am trying to learn as much as I can about parrots bc they are very different from hamsters and dogs which are the pets I'm used to.
I've done my research on breeds and have narrowed it down to three.
Since it is my first bird, I would like him to be able to do okay in the day on his own. I work from 9 - 6 but will play with him for 2 - 3 hours when I get home and A LOT during the weekends when I'm off. I would love a cuddly bird, one who would love to just sleep in my lap while I pet him. I do understand that my bird will be moody sometimes and I do not expect him to be perfect.
I'd also love a bird who can make me laugh. I'm leaning towards a Meyers or RB judge bc I've heard Senegals can be quite territorial. And I do live in an apartment with a roommate. But I would love a bird who I can bond extremely close with. I am truly looking for a companion. However, I know I need to put the bird first so if you think my work schedule would not give me the proper time for a bird, please let me know. I need to be his wellbeing first. Thank you.
