What kind would you recommend for a ';beginner bird';?

I am not exactly a ';beginner'; as I once had a cockatiel, but I will admit I don't really know much about birds, at least not anymore. What would be a bird that would like to be held a lot but would not need hours and hours out of its cage? (As I said I'm no expert but don't some very large parrots need a ton of interaction/stimulation ..?) It might be a tall order but I am just curious;. Thanks a lotWhat kind would you recommend for a ';beginner bird';?
cockatiels are great starter birds since they are not overly needy and if given an adequate sized cage and proper toys are fine being caged longer. Lovebirds can also be a lot of fun but you are best only having one so it bonds to you and not to another bird.





tiels can learn to speak and whistle (males) and their screech is not as high pitched as a lovebirds but lovebirds are clowns and a lot of fun also.What kind would you recommend for a ';beginner bird';?
well i'm not exactly an expert either, but i would recommend a cockatiel, or a budgie.


I have a hand-raised cockatiel and hes the first bird i've ever owned. hes 4 and a half months now and hes just so much fun, he wolf whistles, imitates the phone ringing and we're in the process of teaching him to whistle happy birthday.


If you are able to get a hand-raised bird then a lot of the hard work has been done for you, in terms of being able to bond with it/hold it/pat it. Our tiel is out of his cage for a minimum of 4 hours a day (just cause basically when we get home hes out of the cage straight away) and on our 3 days of weekend hes out of the cage all day. The minimum time they need out of their cage is 30 minutes to an hour but obviously the more time you can spend with it the better especially if you want to maintain a close bond.


Good luck :-)
Birds are social animals; they need company and interaction





if you buy one, buy a companion bird to be with it when no one is home;





ihate to see birds as pets because they really belong in their native habitat; if you can't be there for it don't buy a parrot or cockatoo
