Hello! I live in a studio apartment (single room w/ small bathroom, bedroom size, no upstairs) that allows any pets, however, the place can sometimes have random fire alarm drills or neighbors fighting, so i'm worried it may be too noisy for a bird to be comfortable.
If the noise isn't an issue, i was planning to get a large cage and allow the bird to free fly the apartment (after bird-proofing it) almost daily.
I've mostly decided that i shouldn't own a bird here, but i figured i should ask the bird community their opinion first!
If this is a safe place for a bird, what species would you recommend? I'd prefer a smaller bird that can't be too loud, like a cockatiel or a parrotlet, though i'd like to hear others opinions!
