Favorite type of pet bird?

[finnfinnfriend]

To anyone who has had one, or even met one, what is your favorite type of pet bird and why?

I had a cockatiel a while back, but it didn't work out (I'm allergic) but I would like to try having a bird again some day, when I have my own place and am making good, steady money....

Hey there,

I think all birds are lovely but especially budgies, I own 150 of them! They have great personalities and the colour variations are just amazing!!

I met someone with a duck! Quite cool. I wouldn't mind having one if I move out and get a house... but I want an apartment most likely (Depends).

Ducks are quite funny to me, so having one would be interesting since it isn't something you would normally see.

@veggiegirl: I am interested in budgies. They are so cute and seem friendly!

@kfryman: a duck would be cool! My brother really wants one lol. They are pretty funny lol.

I like myna birds, I just think they're really cool. And I'm not sure but I think they are a song bird?

Cockatoo or sun conure.

Green cheek conure or sun conure like hannahb121 said. (:

They're very quiet and very affectionate. I had one, her name was Baby. Sadly she past away about 12 days later after she was found outside nearby my old school. I stiill miss her very much. it was 3 years ago and I still honor her because she made a huge impact in my life which I won't forget.

Conures look cute and friendly. I'm so sorry for your loss...
Unfortunately I am allergic to Cockatoos because they have the same powder feathers as cockatiels. I think budgies have those too but they are so small that I don't think it would bother me much.

Doves. They're soothing. Also, African Greys and Macaws are pretty.

fruit doves are pretty too.
