hey! i just wanted to pop onto this section of the forum to ask a couple of things about green cheeks specifically and their potential compatibility with my family.
i know they're known to be nippy, so i was wondering if anyone would be able to go a bit more into detail on how that presents with green cheeks? how extreme does it get, etc. we just lost our lovebird who was super hormonal, territorial and trigger happy with her beak for most of her life so i'm trying to see if it would be anywhere close to that level with a green cheek. ideally the next bird we end up getting would be more handleable and less territorial if possible, hence asking on here for your personal experience!
and sort of related, but i know green cheeks might be more prone to picking just one person than a cockatiel would for example (cockatiels are the other choice for our next bird. i just love the spunky personality of green cheeks, particularly after having a lovie as they're such fun chaotic little beasts, though i equally love the sweet personality cockatiels have so it's 50/50!) how likely would the one person scenario be? and what experiences have you guys had with this?
thanks in advance!
