I've been thinking about getting a pet bird in the future. I have a very personable budgie when I was younger, and I would love to have another one. But I need help picking one! While I know a decent amount about bird care, I don't know much about the different species and their personalities.
Here's what I'm looking for:
-Bigger than a budgie. Doesn't have to be huge, but something a bit more substantial and less delicate. I'd prefer something in the medium-size range, but am willing to go larger or smaller.
-Engaging personality. I'm looking for a bird that would be willing to interact with a variety of people. Not necessarily a "one-person" bird. Talking also isn't important to me. It would be fun to have a talking bird, but I value personality over talking ability.
-Not overly noisy. It's a bird, I know they make noise. But I'd like a bird that isn't screeching at the top of its lungs every time I turn around.
So is there a bird out there that would be good for me? Or is this criteria unrealistic? If so, I may put the idea on hold.
