Post: poicephalus

Hi everyone

I was hoping that someone could tell me the differences in
size and personality between the Brown Head, Meyer's,
Senegal, Red Bellied, and Lessor Jardine. I have a baby girl
Meyer's as a pet, and so far she is such a gentle and funny
bird. I'm interested to know how the personality of each of
the poicephalus species might change as they mature, which
ones stay gentle and which ones might be more prone to
biting etc. Also, just in general, which ones are more
people-oriented and which might be more reserved, which
might be more skittish etc. Of course each bird's
personality differs, and how they were raised and are
handled plays a major role, but I'm just trying to find out
the "species specifics."

Many thanks,
Aida
