Maybe let the bird pick you :0) Thats what I tell people who
buy baby cockatiels from me. Not all of my babies are the
same size. Once in a while I get whats called a runt in
dogs. But the runts are cute too and lots of people want
them first.
You want one that wants to be on you and isnt afraid.
Just make sure the bird is healthy and you should be fine.
Good luck
Debbie
