Post: Quakers good as first parrot?

Posted by Courtney on 8/08/07

Recently our local bird store (a lady breeds birds and
opened a store that she sells cages and accessories from
and the occasional bird when she breeds hers) has gotten a
quaker and I am looking for a smaller sized parrot as my
first parrot. I have owned a cockatiel before but I made
the mistake of getting him from the pet store and he was
TERRIFIED of people and would lash out at the cage if you
walked by. I am looking for a parrot that will cuddle with
me and will just become my best birdy friend. Would you
suggest a quaker? This one was hand-fed and is already
handtamed and worked with daily by the owner.
