[@dawnvickerstaff9148]

My dentist had a cockatiel that lived in the office. That bird was exceptional. He would greet everyone, sit on your finger, put his head down for a pet and kiss you if you were up to it. He had favorite patients but he was lovely with everyone who was open to his attentions. Kids adored him! Did wonders for calming very nervous patients.

[@shivani_daro]

So cute 😊

[@Nate_Draws_Art]

As soon as people find out I have a bird the first thing they say is if she can talk....... my answer is always no.........but she can scream

How do u train ur bird??

[@Vesuvi]

Funny thing. I had a Cockatiel named Benny as my first bird and he actually could say 2 phrases. He could say "Whatcha doing" and "Pretty bird". He wasn't perfect with them but it was enough to know what he was saying. I miss my baby so much.

[@psymiinious8053]

Giggle Droid what happened to it?

[@Vesuvi]

He passed away of respiratory issues and old age.

[@statuszone138]

Does cockatail makes too much noise

[@eminenceoftheeast]

I’ve had my green cheek conure for twelve years. She started out as the perfect apartment bird, but when she was five, I lived with a (human) couple who would fight a lot. Their fighting led to my conure developing separation anxiety that would cause her to panic scream when she couldn’t see me (it’s very loud for a small bird and neighbours definitely hear it). I moved out as soon as I could, but the damage was done and she still has remnants of that separation anxiety that make her scream from time to time. I recommend, whenever possible, protecting your birds from human drama (e.g., avoiding unstable roommates), not just to keep their noise level in-check, but to keep them mentally healthy generally.

[@Imran.A.Official]

Did you try training your bird? Training assists in restoring the balance and improve human bond. It also cures biting issues

[@sarojrout6079]

😳

[@craigmanning2439]

Check out 'Pebbles the crazy cockatoo' He had some bad owners in the past and can put on some crazy tirades.

[@Caroline-tb8eh]

Absolutely, my green cheek lived with my mom who had a verbally abusive husband for a while and now my bird is very aggressive and bonded to me alone.

[@magikexpert]

@@craigmanning2439 Pebbles is "CRAZY"! lol A VERY Loving and adorable bird, but when it goes on those tirades wow look out. It's funny how the two bond, get along, and play off each other. I mean Pebbles and his new owner. Sorry I can't think of his name at the moment. Definitely must see videos! UNLESS you're offended by bad language. lol

[@clairewagenblast2170]

To everyone saying stuff like "My (insert bird that was brought up in video) is so loud! Wdym" it's a scale 1-5. If you have ever heard a cockatoo scream, then I can assure you, your budgie is a 1 lol. All birds are loud, she is just relling you the one's that will most likely work the best. All birds are different, and this is mainly based on the general loudness of a bird, but, they vary. So, there is no way you are going to get a bird that doesn't talk or chatter.

[@magikexpert]

You're absolutely right! No two birds are alike. You can have two birds from the same clutch, and they can be completely opposite in temperament or personality. But what she's doing here is giving a general description of each type of bird and how they act. And Claire is absolutely right. EVERY bird will make some type or types of noises and or talk. To what degree yours will????

[@cheshireterror624]

Yeah, cockatoos and macaws are definitely the worst for noise, I lived with a psychotic cockatoo (who lives with my sister in BC) and currently live with a blue gold macaw, and I personally own a 4 month old cockatiel. The macaw gets loud but so does my cockatiel, the cockatiel is more ear piercing, but the macaw is definitely much louder

[@pokerqAK47]

I had a budgie and I would give them a scale of 5! That’s why I’d get a pigeon if I ever wanted to get a bird 😂 I had one, he was smart and quiet.

[@apearson79]

I just brought home my first bird, and she's a lovebird and I live in an apartment! I can already see her personality even though she's scared and not hand tamed. She gets really excited for me to watch her do new things Haha it's adorable.

[@laylafrench4241]

"your neighbors will probably not hear your budgies" 🤣 you can hear mine from outside the house, they usually scream their heads off early in the morning and later at night lol

[@bolt1437]

Go spend 2 minutes in a room with a ockatoo or hell 2 cockatoos.

[@chrystals.4376]

If you are interested in Parrotlets I STRONGLY recommend the Flock Talk channel. Its great for other reasons outside of the Parrotlet group and great for newbies to bird care in general, but people misunderstand them due to lack of education and pet industry hype.

[@handydandycrafts]

Christine Schwarz that is a great channel. I learned a lot about birds from Flock Talk. There is so much to learn about birds, you can never stop learning. I have my own lovebirds and I have come along way in learning about birds. When learning about birds, look into a lot of videos on a lot of different channels. You never know what priceless bits of knowledge you'll pick up on.

[@jessconsidine9919]

yes yes yes! i learned so much by watching all of her videos which were fun and entertaining. I’m so glad i found her channel as my parrotlet lived a great life and she is so fun to watch and educational

[@laurafedora5385]

I think parrotlets are much quieter than lovebirds. Lovebirds have a screech like no other lol

☆PLEASE READ IF CONSIDERING BUYING PET BIRD☆ Just a small note: most if not all conures are really, reaaaaaallllly chirpy. Sun conures, Jenday conjures, and golden conures especially. They are extremely loud for a reason however. Conures are real attention hogs. They love it. One way to overcome the screams and singing is to keep them engaged! Carry them around with you for I recommend as long as you can throughout the day, and when you have to put them in their cage try to give them foraging toys! I wish all owners good luck!

After 3 years of thinking and planning, I have finally decided that I will get a birdy companion after college. The problem mostly is that I have asthma but I genuinely LOOOVE birds. I helped rehabilitate and release wild birds growing up so I'm not new to caring for young and adult birds but I AM new to the "domestics". Thank you to anyone that takes the time to respond 😘

[@anitapalmer4049]

I love cockatiels, they love to cuddle, and get head scratches!! I now have a love bird, his name is Romeo as he’s such a lover!! He’s very quiet, he doesn’t make a sound until I uncover his cage! If you want a strong bond, only get one bird!! If you get another bird, those two birds will bond to each other and you will lose your bond to that initial bird! It broke my heart when I was given another cockatiel and my Angel bonded to Gabby and then he didn’t want to step up anymore, and when she was on eggs, he’d even attack me…… hope this helps!

Pigeons are quite calm quiet birds. Extremely intelligent as well. Very affordable easy to care for. Very underrated in pet world IMO

Im on team lovebird! Such a big personality in tiny package. This is largely missed, but I think a tamed or hand raised canary or finch makes the perfect apartment bird. Mostly because they cannot destroy furniture, and for busy people, they won't be stressed if you leave them for some time

[@damjanilic5596]

When I was 7, a cockatiel flew in my grandparents apartment from outside. He was to me what you first parrot was to you. I've had others after him but he was the best companion that I've ever had.

[@paulydearest1698]

My mother had a cockatiel when she was younger, he was super friendly, she could even stick it's head in her mouth and it'd just sit there. My uncle has a Sun Conure, named Biggie, loud as heck, I couldn't sit in the living room, or eat at the kitchen table, with earplugs I could, but he was a pretty little bird.

[@acacm12]

Oh my Cockatiel is very loud lol . Maybe louder then others . I always wonder when people say how quiet there’s are . My guys sings and chirps reallly loud for long periods of time

I’ve had parrotlets and they were VERY feisty. They did have their lovely moments and cute moments. They are quiet, but quite sassy.

[@devonnahwoodruff5445]

I would also add as a cousin to the African Grey, the Red Bellied Parrot. Ours speaks very well (not as well as a grey :)) and very friendly. She is quiet, very rarely screams and if she "screams" it is not even close to the noise my Blue Crown makes. She can be chatty, and when she talks she is very clear. Other bonus, while when out and about she will cuddle with our green cheek, she also still likes hanging out with my husband or I.

[@sarahh2072]

Thank you!! I'm in an apartment and my daughter is 7 and I think she's ready for her first bird. I've had cockatiels when I was little so we'll be getting one soon ❤️ I also thought about a mustache parakeet and a conure but they seem so loud. Cute but loud!

[@leeannmaranto9635]

I have a budgie and he is the sassiest little bird I have ever met. He is also rather loud and will make a very odd crow sound that interrupts all conversation but adds a comedic break.

I saw a Conure in the store that rolled over in its cage and was trying to get belly rubs and pets. It was acting like a cat the way it rubbed along the glass and chirped. Ever since one stared at me and began to dance I fell in love with it

[@TallJRock]

After much research, i chose a Green Cheeked Conure for my first bird and I currently live in an apartment. She is a joy, does make a little noise when I'm in a different room, but nothing extreme. A big bonus is that she is just a little goofball and loves to make me laugh.

[@isa-ed1fq]

I have 2 Budgies, and a Cockatiel. My budgies can imitate my whistling, but not extremely. My Cockatiel can sing and whistle. I will send a video of my birds on Parrot Station!

I got a parrotlet because everyone told me that they were much quieter than lovebirds, and I had lovebirds when I was a teenager, and they were LOUD and chirped CONSTANTLY. Well it turns out that my parrotlet SCREAMS CONSTANTLY, and ALL DAY. Every time he hears a bird outside, or a car alarm, or a door close, or the wind blow, or anything at all, he starts to SCREAM and chitter for 20 minutes or more. Screaming is pretty much his favorite activity

I had a Cocktail for many years, she was such a wonderful bird. After her I got a budgie pair but encountered a problem, they constantly scream, wake me up every morning, which I am not used to after living with my quiet cocktail. They are so loud that they can be heard by my neighbors.

Then by all means, go do your research and get you a pair of finches. Marlene primarily has experience with parrots, so that's what she discusses on her channel. You notice she didn't name other types of wildlife,such as doves, pigeons, or humming birds, but you can keep those as pets too if you like.

I have a green cheek conure and 2 lovebirds❤️❤️they’re the best lil things ever

[@YTistooannoying]

I love birds and vicariously enjoy them through you, Marlene. I am however the kind of person who shouldn't own a bird. I am a cat person and part of that is due to the fact that cats are so independent. They don't take a lot of care and take their socializtion when they want it. My personality is so insular that integrating birds into my life would be difficult. I mention all this because you make owning a bird look so rewarding and easy... People need to keep their own temperments in mind because parrots deserve great owners, not just someone who wants one because they seem fun...

[@worshipcatalyst1]

Good for you for knowing your limits! I grew up with cats and switched to birds in my 30s. Some birds are good at self regulating, but many are more attached to their person than the average house cat.

[@VCthaGOATdunker]

Well cats can move around freely and even go outside and explore the world. Our beloved birds are in their cages for most of the day.

[@worshipcatalyst1]

Vc it depends on the lifestyle of each home. I know my birds don't spend most of their time in cages.

[@vickiraxster9818]

I am bonded with a single Lovebird girlie and she says "peekaboo" so clearly and everyone is so surprised! Xxx

[@seiliaa]

I think that the budgie should be a 2-3 on the loud scale. I have had then and they can get VERY loud. Sometimes they scream and you just want to beg them to stop. Of course, it all depends on the bird but I have / had quite a few and they definitely might not be the best apartment bird.

[@handydandycrafts]

Having lovebirds myself, I agree with your analysis of lovebirds! They are great and while they do have moments of chattiness, it should be pointed out that they sleep about 12 hrs at night, so they won't likely be chatty while you are sleeping.

She loves her little head scratched, she attempts to dance to music, squeaks when I whistle to her... She will be 2 years old in July, I adopted her when she was 9 weeks old. I love my little baby, Piper.

He screams at 6 am. 7 am When I feed him 8 am When I let him out 9am for attention 10 am because he loves his own voice.

My neighbor was pissed for no reason so she called 911 because my bird was being too loud. I wanted to hit her so badly you don't even know-

[@sydneytrammell9353]

Who gets so excited that when Marlene posts a video can’t help but hyperventilate. Lol

[@thedreamsoldierful]

My favorite thing about parrots is that they like to hang upsidedown. Its unique, other birds don't even do that

[@voidface8827]

I lost my bird yesterday. It hurts so damn much. I really want to watch this video, but I can't.

[@worshipcatalyst1]

Duval I am so sorry to hear that!

[@beautyguru159gaming8]

I'm so sorry. I know how it feels to lose a bird that was bonded to you. It hurts like a shot to the heart. I wish the best for you.

[@jessconsidine9919]

my parrotlet passed 3weeks who from a birth defect, i still haven’t gotten better. I often feel empty and lonely. I feel your pain but atleast since you miss him/her so much means you gave them a great life

[@pillowpjsgt1321]

Are you weird? You can’t watch it but you are commenting? Hmmm not hating just fishy 🐟.

[@idontexist6885]

I feel for you bro

I never hear about Kakariki, their so quiet. Though they throw food everywhere well all birds does. They are also very curious which make them easy to handtame, not all kakarikis but most. It’s hard to train a kakariki to talk but not impossible. I have a kakariki named Ozzi and he’s really nice and funny but sadly my other kakariki Pidge died yesterday but she was really handtamed and loved company. It’s not impossible to have a kakariki alone they are very curious and full of fantasy so buying them some toys will keep them busy for days! It’s a perfect first bird.

I love cockatiels too... I like that they can learn sing a specific song, so cute

[@bellastenbakken5391]

Zebra finches are great as well! They are small, and not loud at ALL! They are a bit talkative though and they have the most wonderfull personalities! 😁 (and they are really cheap to keep)

[@sophiaaa157]

I love my lovebird so much ! He mean so much to me he makes me so happy he’s so sweet so smart loving and sassy lol I would love to get a second bird but I would hate for him to get upset I will have to watch a ton of videos on how to introduce a new bird to the family

[@theterakgitwins685]

My green cheek conure was such a good conure I loved him my whole family did. We got him at about 7 weeks or less don't remember but so we got him from a breeder. His name was Rio and the first week he loved us so much. We would come home from school and he would fly to either me or my brother. It was heart touching that Rio showed sign of emotion to us and got a closer bond to him. About 2 years or 1/1/2 one and a half can't remember I came home from school with my brother and found a feather on the ground I started to worry and we called his name "Rio" no AWNSER we ask our parents they respond with the 2 words "he's died" few hours ago. I didn't believe and cryed for days skipped school had a very hard rough time. He was badly injured and was having his eye hang out and neck destroyed as my little brother closed the door on him by accident as he was still a little toddler and did not understand anything. My mom hid the truth from me saying he hit the window but at one point few years later she told me how he died and how he had a door accident and got the door closed on him by my little innocent brother. We Still miss him from this day. RIP Rio

Watches this 6 years ago when i got my cockatiel and im watching it again cus im moving into s bigger home and want to get him a friend

[@xpieerd]

My uncle has an Amazon. Super loud and independent. She only likes my little cousin and younger kids. She used to stay with another family but they couldn’t socialize with her often and kept her in the garage so maybe that’s why she’s not super social. She so loud and anytime anyone walks into the kitchen she screams until she’s giving recognition but then doesn’t want anything to do with you. So we just let her scream or cover her up when she’s having a fit. She does whistle and say hello, hello pretty bird, Noah, and oh my god.

[@karrisatheweirdo3139]

when i first met my mom’s green cheek he had already bonded to my momma (pretty much in a few days 😂 very social) and brother (took a bit longer) he met me and was hesitant but liked me. after i started watching him the cockatiels, and my brothers doves when mom went on trips with my brother mango really bonded with me like sometimes mom calls him a traitor lol. now when he sees me packing to go back home he does this very sad cheep (sounds like a cry) and tries to take my stuff out of my bag and undo the zipper and even resorts to nipping when i try to zip the bag. I always get sad and now i do little stops and we cuddle and i give him scritches. seriously loves his human sister and i love my bird sibling so so much.

[@mystictheshapeshifter]

Lineolated parakeets are great for apartments too. It doesn't seem like people talk about linnies that much but they are amazing little birds! They're super quiet and make more of a mumbley type of chatter rather than squawky little bird chatter. They're super cuddly and friendly and are such little acrobats. People call them bat-like parrots because they have a more forward posture and they love to hand upside down XD. They are super pretty bird with wonderful colour mutations and have such sweet personalities. I highly recommend them as "beginner" birds too. They're very well rounded parrots. Love the video Marlene! You're awesome! ^__^

[@shainacalma1227]

Me: oh I want a bird! One day: hehe u no ur even allowed to have pets in these damn apartment lol

[@readylee2195]

13:40...the dramatics 😂😂😂

[@avalonbrown8667]

The African grey noise conversation felt personal 😂

[@brianmorales5591]

I had a green cheek conure for a couple months before it wouldn’t eat anymore and ended up dying unfortunately. I truly wish I had been more educated on bird ownership. I loved that bird more than I thought I would at first and miss it like crazy. Might look into getting another one once I am more educated

[@birdman4386]

That african grey be like "HUH? WHAT U SAY HOOMAN?? HUUUH HUH??" His movements soooo fucjing curious

[@richardwilts2042]

I was watching a KZbin video called (8 most beautiful macaws on the planet earth) and when they got to the hybrid macaw you were shown with Rocky

[@Scarlet_Warlcok]

As a conure owner (pineapple conure) I can confirm they are VERY SOCIAL. My little Romeo always wants to be with me and as soon as I am not in his line of sight, he flock calls.

[@jpn_119]

My green cheek conure used to scream pretty loud and did it anytime i left him alone, but i loved him anyways, he didn't like anyone else but me though, miss him sooo much, gonna get another parrot soon.

[@redfox2445]

Love birds are awesome pets and they are usually ignored some people don’t even know if they are in the world I really appreciate you to mentioning lovebirds in this video ❤️ you so much

[@Nyraksi]

I live in a 1 bedroom apartment with concrete floors. My neighbours can't hear my GCC when she occasionally flock calls. I have a pretty quiet GCC as she hardly ever flock calls or does the high pitch whistle. Her cage is in the open living room / kitchen space on a wall that faces outside. Great little parrot for apartments if you don't live in an older unit with cardboard walls.

[@Indusxstan]

Very informative. Much appreciated 👍

[@snatched.8135]

Lies you tell! I had a cockatiel and he would wake up every single morning 7 AM sharp and do the loudest freaking whistle! ..... yeah they're definitely noisy.

[@mirkkulainen]

I laughed at the part "it will feel like... Someone's hammering... Forever." Your videos are so great and educating. I have decided of having a bird in my house. Atm I'm thinking about the right species choise. I have this pretty large house and lots of room with extra high ceiling, so there is space to fly. Thing that I am most worried about is winter conditions. I live in Finland and my house might get too chilly for most of the birds. Need still to do some homeworks.

[@MichelleMCTran]

I’m getting a parrotlet. And I got bit on the earlobe by African grey lol I wore shiny earrings they like shiny things
