    My dentist had a cockatiel that lived in the office. That bird was exceptional. He would greet everyone, sit on your finger, put his head down for a pet and kiss you if you were up to it. He had favorite patients but he was lovely with everyone who was open to his attentions. Kids adored him! Did wonders for calming very nervous patients.

  • @PhantomPhoenix105
    @PhantomPhoenix105 Před 6 lety +461

    That comment you made about african greys that copy other birds really brought back memories. I had an african grey and a citren crested cockatoo as a kid. The cockatoo would scream constantly, and me and me brothers, being little kids didn't seem to understand that telling him to be quiet didn't make things any better. Sure enough, the grey started to scream and honk like the cockatoo, and she sounded exactly like him. But you could tell it was her, because every time she would scream like him, she would follow it up with, "Peter, be quiet!"
    There's my bird story. I miss having them, they certainly do have a whole lot of attitude

    • @thetechgenie7374
      @thetechgenie7374 Před 5 lety +14

      Sabreena Floyd When you don’t want a Cockatoo to scream. You have to not give it attention during that time. By yelling, or yelling the bird to be quiet will enforce the behavior and they learn to scream to get attention, same goes for biting. My cockatoos rarely scream during the day except when customers as take them to work with me and usually the birds copy kids especially play, or cry and then they try to mimic them.

    They are amazing pets, but they are loud. Not noisy. I have one. She isn’t constantly making noises like a lovebird or budgie. But when she wants to get loud, she’ll get loud! Mine is attached to me, and I believe she thinks I’m her mother, because I have raised her since she was 4 weeks old. You have been warned...

    I’ve had my green cheek conure for twelve years. She started out as the perfect apartment bird, but when she was five, I lived with a (human) couple who would fight a lot. Their fighting led to my conure developing separation anxiety that would cause her to panic scream when she couldn’t see me (it’s very loud for a small bird and neighbours definitely hear it). I moved out as soon as I could, but the damage was done and she still has remnants of that separation anxiety that make her scream from time to time. I recommend, whenever possible, protecting your birds from human drama (e.g., avoiding unstable roommates), not just to keep their noise level in-check, but to keep them mentally healthy generally.

    @clairewagenblast2170 Před 6 lety +147

    To everyone saying stuff like "My (insert bird that was brought up in video) is so loud! Wdym" it's a scale 1-5. If you have ever heard a cockatoo scream, then I can assure you, your budgie is a 1 lol. All birds are loud, she is just relling you the one's that will most likely work the best. All birds are different, and this is mainly based on the general loudness of a bird, but, they vary. So, there is no way you are going to get a bird that doesn't talk or chatter.

    • @magikexpert
      @magikexpert Před 4 lety +9

      You're absolutely right! No two birds are alike. You can have two birds from the same clutch, and they can be completely opposite in temperament or personality. But what she's doing here is giving a general description of each type of bird and how they act. And Claire is absolutely right. EVERY bird will make some type or types of noises and or talk. To what degree yours will????

      Yeah, cockatoos and macaws are definitely the worst for noise, I lived with a psychotic cockatoo (who lives with my sister in BC) and currently live with a blue gold macaw, and I personally own a 4 month old cockatiel. The macaw gets loud but so does my cockatiel, the cockatiel is more ear piercing, but the macaw is definitely much louder

I remember going over to her house and playing with Smokey, who must of been the sweetest bird I've ever met, and she never screamed. She talked alot, mostly like "Smokey want a strawberry" and stuff. My grandma had the bird for about 30 years I believe, but recently passed away. Smokey was given to a family member but was obviously devastated. I hope she will pull through and enjoy the rest of her life, their bond was strong though

    Just a small note: most if not all conures are really, reaaaaaallllly chirpy. Sun conures, Jenday conjures, and golden conures especially. They are extremely loud for a reason however. Conures are real attention hogs. They love it. One way to overcome the screams and singing is to keep them engaged! Carry them around with you for I recommend as long as you can throughout the day, and when you have to put them in their cage try to give them foraging toys! I wish all owners good luck!

    I had a budgie as a child. It was a great pet! My parents adopted it from a friend when it was around 3-4 years. He lived another 10+ years! He was a very bright bird. He didn’t like to be petted or scratched, but was otherwise very friendly. He liked to play, but wouldn’t bother me if I was busy. We never clipped his feathers because he knew not to fly into the fan. I’d never met another budgie so clever as him. I cried when we found him dead after returning from a weekend with my grandparents. We gave him a Christian Burial and also said a Hebrew prayer just in case.

    I think the Eclectus is a good parrot for apartments. They are not loud, they only get loud if they are suddenly startled by something & they get excited when you come home, they are big greeters. But they are not loud. They are a flock bird, they will include all family members. They don't like a lot of noise and/or chaos. They are very laid back parrots, they can be goofy because they like to see a response from you. They also want attention, affection & interaction, they are very smart & they want to be included in everything. They do require at least 10 hours of sleep & they require a different diet due to their long digestive tract, fiber. But the Eclectus is not a loud bird, my opinion of course & I do favor the Eclectus. Quakers are another good apartment bird. I had a Quaker who was a big talker & he had a huge vocabulary & everything out of his beak was very clear. He was an amazing big talker.

He’s very quiet, he doesn’t make a sound until I uncover his cage! If you want a strong bond, only get one bird!! If you get another bird, those two birds will bond to each other and you will lose your bond to that initial bird! It broke my heart when I was given another cockatiel and my Angel bonded to Gabby and then he didn’t want to step up anymore, and when she was on eggs, he’d even attack me…… hope this helps!

    I would also add as a cousin to the African Grey, the Red Bellied Parrot. Ours speaks very well (not as well as a grey :)) and very friendly. She is quiet, very rarely screams and if she "screams" it is not even close to the noise my Blue Crown makes. She can be chatty, and when she talks she is very clear. Other bonus, while when out and about she will cuddle with our green cheek, she also still likes hanging out with my husband or I.

Well it turns out that my parrotlet SCREAMS CONSTANTLY, and ALL DAY. Every time he hears a bird outside, or a car alarm, or a door close, or the wind blow, or anything at all, he starts to SCREAM and chitter for 20 minutes or more.

    I miss the Eclectus my dad came home with when I was like 10 years old. Verdi was so good at talking and whistling, he even whistled the first few measures of Beethoven's 9th Symphony. Despite being a larger bird, he really was rather quiet most of the time, more so than the 2 cockatiels we had. When he screamed, it was loud obviously, but it happened sooooo rarely. He just chattered a lot. We didn't get to keep him for more than a few years (we sold him to an experienced bird owner), and I've missed him for the last 12 or 13 years ever since. I just hope he's still alive and happy out there.
