I have just purchased a baby parrot. He is in "preschool" until the end of the month, then I'll be going on a (little) journey to pick him up. Name best at two syllables, so say the manuals on parrots. He's a quaker. thanx--please hurry--I have "new dad" anxiety. ha ha hug heart1 teddybear

My cousins have a parrot named KIKI and a macaw named RICO. They are over 10yrs old and still going strong and are real characters and very spoilt!

I had an African Grey parrot as a child. Unfortunately my parents often held parties during the sixties, and poor Charlie became an alcoholic with all the whisky misguidedly offered by some of their house guests! He fell off his perch one day stone dead. crying I was 11 years old and was distraught to find him.

I don´t have any suggestions regarding a name, that has to be something you decide, but keep him away from the whisky. rolling on the floor laughing

Congrats on the new little one! You might want to get him home and observe him for a bit. A fitting name will come to you.

Quaker parakeets are adorable. If you plan on spending a ton of time interacting with him, he should do fine by himself. If you aren't going to be available multiple times a day for play time, you might want to get another for company for him. The bigger birds do well alone, but the smaller ones seem to have difficulty with it. By the same token, all exotic birds will do best with company.

Before I got into equine rescue, I was into bird rescue. At one point I had nearly 200 exotic birds of all kinds and sizes in my home. Most had been tormented to the point where they weren't fit company for humans, so they had playmates and were kept in the bird room. Most of the larger ones (macaw, cockatoo, amazons) were kept in the family room and had frequent play time with my family.

And don't let anyone tell you that your new addition can't talk. A friend of mine had a finch who talked and sang. I had many talking birds and they were more entertaining conversationalists than most of the people I knew.
