Parrot advice needed - General Tiki

Thanks to all those who replied, as it's just the kind of advice I wanted. I don't know if it's the Monty Python dead parrot sketch which has put me off approaching pet stores, but I value the thoughts of Tiki Centralites much higher. Looking after a parrot is obviously pretty time and energy consuming, so I'll probably leave it until I'm working from home or retired! Perhaps I'll start off with a budgie and work my way up... An animatronic parrot would probably suit me just fine, especially if it had a recordable voice. If I can't find anything suitable, I guess I'll take Laney's advice and turn the cage into part of the decor somehow. Trader Woody
