I love having my chicks just sit and perch on me but I dont think they'll be quite as willing (or small) to do it as they get older. Also they probably wouldn't be able to come inside. So I was thinking about looking into parrots. I already have research under my belt from previous years but I still have trouble picking out breeds.
The things I look for in a parrot are:
likes to sit on shoulders, likes to cuddle
Their morning and night screams aren't too loud (I have a little sister)
Independent at times (when I need to work they would need to be content sitting on their play stand by themselves for a little bit)
I'm gone about 8-10 hours a day but whenever I'm home they'll be out of cage
Willing to learn tricks (I like trick training)
Adapts to change well
I'm fine if it can't talk, I like the whistles better anyway
I know possibly a cockatiel or conure (I always fall in love with the green cheeks at the petstore)
What other parrots do you think would be a good match for me if I ever get one?
I'm fine handling big birds but I know they're loud so I dont think they'll be good for my situation
