Re: What is the right bird for me?![]()

The type of bird that may be right for you is dependent on
many factors...
Do you live in an apartment?
Will noise and/or size be a problem?
Do you have adequate space for cage?
Do you have a lot of spare time for a bird, or is it more
limited? (larger birds and some smaller species are very
time demanding)
Could time commitments forseeably change? (marriage, new
baby, change in jobs, move...remember, none of these things
are the fault of our feathered friend)
Expense and ease of care? (The larger the bird, the harder
to handle and incrementally expensive the foods, medical
treatment, grooming, etc.)
Without thinking in realistic terms, you may cheat your new
friend or yourself out of a good relationship. Be fair to
yourself and any potential feathered pet and consider ALL
the details...then make a sound choice.
