Its always scary when a movie with parrots or exotic birds is out, because the bird shops have dozens if not hundreds of people wanting them who didnt think. Then after a month or so these same people sell off, dump, or worse, kill them. Everybody that posted before had good info. Keep in mind the time factor involved, money matter, & cleaning factor. If after that, you still want one, go for it, its worth it. I start by having parakeets 1st, then moved on to cocktiel, then parrotlets, & now a Meyers (senegal family).
