Wow you guys are so full of information it astonishes me! Hehe! AdoreMyDogs I will ask my mom about a cockatiel instead. I had two budgies once and they hated me. They bit and squawked any time I went near them. I used to open their cage door to ask them to come out and they wouldn't. I got them right after my loveable little hamster died to fill the void but they didn't. I remember going to bed crying because they hated me! I don't want that again. So I will ask about a cockatiel. Wish me luck
