As much as I love all of my birds, and none of them are going anywhere, if we had to do it all again, I think we'd stick to tiels.<BR/><BR/>Meg -- Yet again, I agree with you. As much as I love my birds, there would be so much less suffering in the world had humans never taken them into our homes. Tiels really seem to be among the best able to adapt to the unnatural living conditions we impose on them (captivity).<BR/><BR/>Their pair has far exceeded their wildest expectations. They rather thought they were doing a good deed and taking in birds that wouldn't want human interaction, but wouldn't get much pleasure out of it themselves (I hope that makes sense). But, they do solicit human interaction (for example, they only eat pellets when they are hand-fed to them and will often briefly land on them while flying around). They are among the happiest captive birds I've seen.Maryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06645791926538907697noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7070053671376569995.post-18261945583096878932008-12-27T10:16:00.000-08:002008-12-27T10:16:00.000-08:00It is always an amazement to me that people can ov...It is always an amazement to me that people can overlook tiels. They are, (no offense intended for other bird species!) without a doubt, the bird closest to being a perfect "pet" bird. I do not think any bird species make great "pets", but tiels come closer than any of the others.<BR/><BR/>I am glad your parents adopted a pair. So many times I hear people, even supposed rescue advocates, say that breeder birds and bonded pairs do not make good "pets". That, in my opinion, is nonsense. Maybe they are not the bird(s) for everyone, but they make wonderful companions!Meghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05295001210939902600noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7070053671376569995.post-62325099680680423542008-12-26T14:05:00.000-08:002008-12-26T14:05:00.000-08:00Cockatiels are such wonderful, wonderful little pa...Cockatiels are such wonderful, wonderful little parrots! Like a cockatiel expert told me once, cockatiels have everything people want in a parrot -- only in smaller package.<BR/><BR/>Plus the poops are easier to deal with.<BR/><BR/>My little yellow cockatiel changed my life -- and still hasn't finished training me.Scritches.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00888201072541904299noreply@blogger.com
