Best Beginner Birds As Pets! 👀🦜

[@jenniferCastellano927]

Dude I love you! I prefer smaller species too. While I really admire them I know I they require a lot of space and they are a longer commitment. People don’t realize that little birds are a commitment too. Budgies can up to 15 years. My Quaker Parrot lived 19 years, which isn’t a super long time but she lived to a respectable age given that she developed health issues toward the end of her life. My Sun Conure is 20! She is still peppy and has no known health issues. I also kid you not. She is quiet and doesn’t a lot of noise. Most of her noises consist of chirps, kisses and “hellos”. She’s not a screamer. I seriously lucked out with her LOL! Don’t tell Sunny, but I really love Cockatiels because of their whistles. They are such gentle birds

[@PoodlesandParrots]

Oh gosh! Thank you🤗Exactly what I wanted to highlight in this video is that it doesn't matter if it's a smollll bird or a big bird they are a big commitment, responsibility with needs either way! You're sun sounds awesome, and love to the Quaker who crossed the🌈🤍

[@jandrsc]

We've had the same experience with our Sun Conure! She (DNA tested) is really not as loud as people say. Our 10 Budgies can be louder when they want! (But the Budgie chatter is adorable.)

My dream bird is one that will be happy and have the best life possible with me. 😊

[@PoodlesandParrots]

@@NemoMeImpuneLacessitNevermore love that!

I have 4 budgies and they are adorable but VERY VERY messy. I need to vacuum 4-5 times a day. They can also be loud at times but compared to other birds like conures they are quieter. They also are small and fragile. They are 100% worth it and they are a blast.

[@PoodlesandParrots]

Thanks for sharing your experience with budgies! Sounds like a cute little flock you have!😀

[@jenniferaffholder8794]

I have 2 budgies they are very friendly but have no chill, always playing and flying and jumping around lol. After an hour or two they may hang out on your shoulder or try to groom you. They are only loud when they want out of their cage . Otherwise they sing the songs of their people. I love them ❤

[@mischiefmaker1000]

Excellent video 😊 I 100% agree that beginner birds are not real, finding out which bird (if any) will fit in with an individual person and choose accordingly. Lots of good advice for perspective owners to consider.

[@PoodlesandParrots]

Thank you for your kind words!🤗

[@Sadistic626]

Great video, it's nice to see you cover a lot of the topics that other people ignore.

[@PoodlesandParrots]

Thank you!✨

When I move out of my apartment and get a house I’d really like a parrot . My neighbor had a couple and they were just too cool

[@Robin3615]

You mention African Gray and Senegal are talkers. I have a Senegal and they are not talkers. They are relatively quiet and they tend to learn a few very quiet, raspy sounding words.

[@itszaque]

Had 2 cockatiels growing up and loved them, though the first was certainly better socialized than the second. Starting to think about getting one again in the next year and this video was perfect!

[@PoodlesandParrots]

Glad you found this video!😊

[@gamer21152]

Which parrot should i get green cheek conure, cockatiel or rainbow lorikeet

[@zxy-fishing]

cockateil make great pets for cheap price, good personality also.

[@gamer21152]

@@zxy-fishing is he playful and quiet

[@zxy-fishing]

@@gamer21152 yes to playful but everybird is noisy, it just depends on their feelings, like if a bird was scard it would be noisy but if the bird was relaxed it would not be noisy, so yes and no, it depends how you treat the bird.

[@gamer21152]

@@zxy-fishing and which species you would buy?

[@zxy-fishing]

@@gamer21152 any species are fine.

[@LilMissSpeeedy01]

I am in love with Budgies. I currently own 2. Have owned them for a year. I had looots of birds growing up. My dream bird is a Sun Conure, but i've heard they're super noisy so that puts me off lol.

[@PoodlesandParrots]

I can confirm that sun conures are indeed loud🥰 and they have a pretty strong beak compared to the smolller guys like budgies and even GCC!

[@Monej82]

I chose a Pionus as my first parrot, it was right for me, no regrets. A so underrated parrot ❤

[@PoodlesandParrots]

They are so pretty and I've heard only good things about Pionus parrots🤗❤ glad to hear you found the parrofect birb for you!😀

[@sharonlowstetter2124]

Ty loved this. Have 2 Lovebird sibling babies, and really want a indian ringneck. How hard are they?

[@PoodlesandParrots]

I wouldn't reco a IRN with a bonded pair of love birds but from our guest on ep.29, Jessa said her IRN is the least social/affectionate from her flock but please do more research the species! kzbin.info/www/bejne/hJS7aWSgrtlontUsi=iOF6rnYAB8M0VxOT

[@martalech6371]

Love this !! I have 3. Conure and two cockatiels.. Fourth one will be here soon... My dream bird blue-headed pionus.. I have been on a waiting list for 4 and 1/2 years ... Me and my husband have birds two puppies a lot of reptiles and the birds are for the most needy out of them all I consider my dog's kids lol but we don't ever go on vacation, no one will watch all of our pets that we can trust and all the money we could be using on vacation we spend on them but I wouldn't have it any other way but please research take your time a bird is not something that you buy on a wim!

[@PoodlesandParrots]

Oh my gosh, I can't believe the waitlist for the pionus! What country is the waitlist like this in, if you don't mind sharing? Research is important - & thank you for sharing that! It can definitely be difficult to travel once you have pets, and the more you have, the harder it gets🥲

[@jandrsc]

Same here. My husband and I don't really trust anyone to care for our dogs and birds overnight. We are fine this way. Occasionally we make a "day trip" (not overnight) to another town/city/state.

[@whenimmanicimgodly4228]

I need a bird with adhd, any help?

[@Kez16h]

LOL cockatiel for sure

[@MrCyanide35]

I went to an event about interacting with animals because my wife want to bring my daughter there. To be honest i used to be unconfortable/scared with any species besides human. I even scared of cats n dogs haha. But at the event, i felt in love with the birds . They are lovely and beautiful. Most of them are very gentle. I dont remember the name of those birds but one of them flew and landed right on my hand as i holding bird food. Even after the food is finish it jump to my shoulded and stay with me for few minutes. I really want to have a bird to invite it as my family but i dont want to always keep it in cage. May i know what kind of bird that if i trained them enough, they will come back to my house if they fly around outside ? I prefer the gentle loving type instead of the energetic ones. Hope u guys understand my english and can suggest me some type of birds

[@PoodlesandParrots]

It's wonderful to hear about your positive experience with birds. When considering adding a bird to your family and allowing it to fly outdoors, it's crucial to understand that free-flight training requires significant time, patience, and expertise. I think it's best to thoroughly research the species you're interested in and consult with experienced bird owners or professionals who have successfully trained their birds for free flight. Offering lots of out of the cage time at home is also okay!

[@PoodlesandParrots]

I also suggest EP.23 & 35 of the parrot podcast! kzbin.info/www/bejne/d5-ndml_h9Sfqrssi=ajt0WxA1kuX7VC5y & kzbin.info/www/bejne/rYeoeYtvhMyEZs0si=lQX8smTYPcJXQ1Mx

[@jessicacorr5805]

My dream bird is a sulphur cockatoo but I’ll need to refrain from getting due to how long their lifespan can be and common behavioural issues 😢

[@PoodlesandParrots]

I’ve heard they are very needy! They love to with their people though🫶🏼

[@zxy-fishing]

best pets id say is macaws, conures, cockateils

[@TheParrotTeacher]

No such thing, well covered in this video!

[@PoodlesandParrots]

Thank you David!🙌🏼

[@youssefahmed9324]

I’m getting a cockatiel bc they like to play and they are energetic and easy to train and I like to play and I’m energetic so a pretty good bird for my personality and it’s so cute and also I would like a cockatiel to play with

Love this video very informative! 💖

[@PoodlesandParrots]

Thank you!😀

[@BirdNerdSophie]

Awesome video! 👏Definitely no such thing as a beginner bird!

[@PoodlesandParrots]

Thank you Soph!❤️😊

[@jandrsc]

I've even met bird owners who seem to view Budgies and Cockatiels as "lesser" birds and don't take them seriously.

[@marandathompson6367]

I don't even plan on getting a bird. I own 3 ferrets who are my whole heart. But! I always thought the Galah/Rose breasted cockatoo was such a beautiful bird.

[@PoodlesandParrots]

Cute! Yes galahs are gorgeous😍💕

[@karolbbs2]

What about a ringneck will be my first parrot I want a very talkative bird but I don’t want a big bird with a big beak I have a 7 year old daughter

[@PoodlesandParrots]

@@karolbbs2 I suggest doing a lot of research to find the species best for you and your family, define research ringnecks! instagram.com/reel/C_TWT9wCkG0/?igsh=aDIyMmZicm1pdDY3

[@ABWeaver]

I love birds. I love the people who properly care for them but if you step back and have a look at it, it's cruel to keep birds in cages. God didn't intend for them to live this way.

chickens and ducks make good pets. LOL. and they leave you butt nuggets to eat
