Geez so hard to choose. I read every post bcuz husband wanted a Quaker and I wanted a green cheek (we had one who passed a few months ago) . Pretty sure reading thru these, I'm getting a green cheek again. Btw he didnt like us in his cage, BUT, I could say Step Up, then he would get on my finger and he would allow me to mess with his cage, as long as he was either on my finger ,my shoulder or in another room he just did not like me in his cage while he was in it .kind of like you might not want someone in the bathroom when you're in there .that's just sort of how I looked at it. He LOVED to snuggle, he LOVED to play alone in the pots & pans cupboard. He talked in context. He put HIMSELF to bed in his cage when i dimmed the lights & asked if he was ready for night night, then I'd say night night to each budgie with him on my head id cover budgie cage, then cover his cage, flip up part of the cover,exposing the door, & leave the door open, then he'd kiss me & fly to his cage & get in. I never closed it til i knew he was asleep. I tried to respect his autonomy, as long as it was safe. He was my friend. I could talk for hours about him...
