I think Australian ringneck parrots would make a wonderful pet.

The parrots sold in Canada are born in captivity..



They are not wild animals.

The operative word being CAPTIVITY.



If a woman gives birth to a child in prison, should that child then forever be confined to a prison?

Bricktop

Here's an Australian bird you can put in a cage!!!

Do you have a dog?

Bricktop

Yes.



And she is allowed to wander freely (in the house and garden), and has a lot of bushland to walk in. No comparison to caged birds.

The birds are really hungry this time of year. This one got his piece of apple and took off to greedily devour it....lol I have to go back with more apples.

They live in a very frequented picnic area at WA's Serpentine Dam.



Two landed on my head and walked down to my shoulder... one was very confident but the other was shaking a little bit.

Birds love their featherless friends.



I think humans are just as much toys to them as the other way around.





I had budgies breeding in my house.... they knew I was part of their flock.



They absolutely obeyed every command I gave them.... the ONLY time I was considered a "threat" was when Budgie Boy was mating with Budgie Girl and Budgie Boy considered me a threat. .....lol



And soon as Budgie Girl laid all her eggs he was back to trying to get more food off me.



I just love birds... I love all animals except crocs and sharks.

That is the same baseless claim as "horses love to be raced".



Unless a bird has told you that he or she loves humans, you have no way of knowing. Conditioning does not mean they love you.
