Hi, I have just found this group and thought maybe I could get some feedback about my bird. Birdie (original, hey?) is my first bird. I was going to find myself a Parrotlet as I had heard they would be good companions, but I fell in love with this beautiful Turquoisine Parrakeet. The pet store said she would be a good pet for what I wanted - one bird to bond with as I am home enough for just one bird to not get lonely. She is a shy little bird and she prefers to stay in her cage even though the door is always open. When I take her out she will usually go back into her cage. I didn't know anything about this type of bird when I got her and it has been hard to find much info online, but I have learned that this bird is not the best for a pet like I have her as but would be good for an aviary. I want to make her happy and content somehow even though I have her in the wrong situation. I think she might be an older bird from what I have recently heard - her nails are quite long and her feet are a bit 'scaly' looking. Is there any way I can slowly get her to interact with me a bit more?
