Full of character - Bcheek, Idaho,

Fun birds, mimic everything you say with lots of practice, talks when you're not in the room. Great company to have in home and the want to be around you. Can do tricks like stack blocks, love to play in tunnels and with some toys. Not as destructive as I expected, more messy than anything by throwing food and treats. Requires lots of attention ( but loves you so much back!), moderate cage space, some humidity, maybe warmth, and lots of good food.


To me these are great starter birds. - Annette,

Great choice. I would advise to get a young one. They can be a little moody. I have 3 Quakers and I wouldnt take anything for them. They love to stay busy, sing and talk like crazy. They're so much fun.


Real characters - Cat,

Very loveable, very forthcoming, but handle with care! These birds will live life on their terms but you must work with them and they will love you forever. Can be bitey if you dont go slow with handling.
