Thanks for all your insights. I have decided to simply treasure the birds I have for the time being; they both are young and I would like to work more with them and possibly teach them tricks. A new birdie, though tempting, would just divide my attention away from Connie and Ollie. I spent an hour playing with Ollie this afternoon, he is smart and funny and Connie can be sweet and cuddly. A Too, for me at least, would be a better choice for a single bird household where I could lavish all the attention it wanted on it without competition from other parrots. I admire those of you who can keep a house full of parrots, they are all so attractive, so loving, so cute. In my case, at least for the the time being (we also have a dog), less is more. My desire for another parrot was most grounded in the idea that Connie needed a friend; but the other half is only attracted too larger, more intelligent, and more needy talking birds. If I could simply get another GCC, I'm sure I can handle that--but not something as high maintenance as a Too.
