    Cockatiels are easy to train. Yet they need to take some time to recognize the sounds that the other birds make. They also need a bigger cage to have exercise and spaces and you should also give them toys! You gotta bond with them too because they are playful, smart and a singer too 😅 I feel like Cockatiels are great for beginners 😁

    My African grey comes out from his cage at 7am an goes back in his cage at 7pm I wouldn't recommend one for someone who hasn't got a lot of time . I got him at 12 weeks old he now 5 he can be a handful sometimes but also very loving an talks quite a lot. But a warning if you let your parrot out all day like I do keep your eyes on him they love to destroy anything and everything furniture. Curtains television remote 😂 wouldn't have him any other way ❤

    @aem_ari Před 9 měsíci +9

    This video had a lot of wrong information for anyone wanting a "beginner" bird. There really isn't such a thing as a beginner bird since almost every single bird needs a large cage, socialization, time outside a cage and a well balanced diet. Also not every bird is guaranteed to learn how to mimic speech, working at a bird store and being around birds for over 7+ years I've met a ton of birds that are known for speaking never say a word. Even from personal experience, I own a Bourke Parakeet which are not known to speak and mine does say a couple words. Just many things in the video that should have been mentioned to the viewers.
    For Instance, I would never recommend getting half of the species that were listed in this video. Eclectus Parrots which yes have an amazing vocabulary do need constant attention and need to have a special diet of pellets and fresh fruits and veggies daily. Also budgies and parrotlets DO need a large cage, lots of toys and have to be taken out of their cage. Just because the bird is small doesn't mean you get it a tiny cage. Additionally, Amazons, African Greys, Conures, and Hahn's Macaws would never be a good choice for someone that doesn't do research on what they are getting into. There are many different species of conures that people would need to research on to see which is a good fit for their lifestyle not just the color. Sun Conures, Jendays, Nandays, Gold-Caps, etc are known to be the loudest of the conures where the green cheeks, crimson bellies, etc are known to be a quieter conure.
    If someone is really interested in a bird then they should do research on a species of bird that fit their lifestyle not for the speaking ability. Also the cost of birds did go up, so finding these prices would be hard. I've seen larger birds going for $3k and up especially birds such as Amazons, Macaws and Cockatoos.

      I agree with this 100%, beginner bird is not a thing, you either "sacrifice" a LOT of time to your bird friend or you don't get a bird. Your bird should be number 1 on your daily priority list. You are their connection to the world. You're their captor, parent and friend, trainer and playmate, caretaker and love giver. If you don't take it seriously the animal you decided to buy suffers. Its selfish and wrong. That being said, if you're willing to put in all this time, effort and love into your pet you will most likely have the best time ever. The amount of love and laughs I get from my bird mean the world to me. For me, its all been worth it, my bird makes me smile, always, he can be a little annoying toddler too though. Its still cute and I can steer him out of that. Just realise that once you get a bird you should consider them in decisions you make. Long holiday far away? Probably not a great idea. Spontaneous weekend away? Who's taking care of your bird.
      Oh and consider the mess and noise.

    • @danielh12345
      @danielh12345 Před 9 měsíci +1

      P.s. my lovebird speaks, not as clear as a lot of these species of course. But he says pretty boy, good boy, daddies boy, makes kiss noises, says cute / sweet (it's one word in Dutch) and combines its haha. E.g. "Happy (his name) pretty good boyyy", "daddy good boy" Sometimes it's more clear than others because he sometimes puts more effort into it. But people who know him hear it every time. It's funny, never expected him to try or be able to speak, they aren't known to talk. But those are his favourite expressions and he made it a mission to try. Understands the meaning too, says the word for cute/sweet after giving a kiss for example, makes kiss noise when he comes in for a smooch. Calls himself a good boy when he sees his favourite treat and gestures towards it to show me he wants and deserves it. They can communicate without words too, so every reader worried about having a bird that doesn't speak, you will learn everything about them when you spend the time and effort. I know he's going to poop before he does, I know he's going to fly towards his water fountain in 2 seconds. There are minute signs that you will learn but probably can't write down. Others are clear as day. It's fun and rewarding to bond with them, but it's not for everyone, you HAVE to spend the time.

    Whatever you do, never buy a single bird, always get at least a pair of male and female. And always prefer adopting a bird over buying one. And if you decide to get them from a shelter, if possible, visit them on several days to see if their personalities suit you. Let the birds choose you rather than the other way around. That way you'll both be happy for hopefully a long time.
    Oh and don't forget parrots can get really old, they are often a lifetime commitment.
