My name is Andrew Robinson. I'm an engineer and physicist from Raleigh NC and considering diving into this world. I'm still doing my research and trying to decide if this lifestyle is right for me. I'm a young single guy with no other pets or children and I have a reasonable amount of time to spend with a new feathered friend. I work from home several days a week and usually work from home/am on call over weekends too, so I feel I can dedicate quite a bit of attention, however, I am getting a little scared off by some of the horror stories haha. I currently live in a house, but I am considering moving to a town home. I am interested in getting a single Black headed Caique. I look forward to hearing back from everyone and getting some opinions. Thanks everyone!

Birds are a different kind of commitment than dogs or birds, but I couldn't imagine not having them.

Hi, Andrew,
Is there a bird rescue or sanctuary in your area?
You might consider volunteering to become familiar with parrots and what is involved in caring for them.

Welcome to AA Hope you Will enjoy it here with us crazy ppl :)

Its great that you doing your research and not rushing in to it.
As Wendy Said you should volunteer at a parrot rescue center.
There u can interact with different parrots and that might make it easier for you to choose.

Props on your for doing your research first :laugh: I definitely agree with @WendyN on getting some hands-on experience before choosing to adopt, parrots are a long commitment so you really need to know what you're getting into
