My experience is that they are wonderfully entertaining, very messy (flinging food and water everywhere), lovers of attention (which I gladly provide), excellent parents if you have a breeding pair, and quite smart, too! We have a male and a female and he is much more talkative than she is. He knows some words and tunes. They did have hatch one clutch and have 3 babies last summer. What fun that was!

If I can offer up anymore assistance, don't hesitate to ask.
