DAMN IT I WANT ONE SO BAD.

[ManOfGoD212]

Thank you for raising up my blue pastel parrotlet :). He is so adorable!! He is tamed and train to listen to my commands. I definitely recommend these pocket parrots to anyone interested in owning one as a pet!!!! :).

Best regards,

They should have a perch and not be kept in a glass container.

@jolly4ever Of course I don't keep my weened birds in a fish tank!  The birds in this video are already weened and friendly. The fish tank in this case was used as a prop (sometimes I use stuffed animals, baskets, etc). The fact that its transparent allowed for better video footage.

so cute! your daughter is so cute with them too!very pretty birds but they seem fairly noisy for apartment neighbors! Do they need a lot of maintenance?

[rakeshg89]

be careful witth the birds



[Camalulu47]

How much is a reasonable price for ONE parrotlet?

[forgotmyinfo]

@Camalulu47 A good handfed bird that is already weaned (DO NOT GET ONE THAT IS NOT WEANED!) is usually $200 or more, depending on color

[FriendlyBirdAviary]

No, they don't scream. They chirp. Yes, they are great apartment birds because they don't make loud noises!

hey do these birds scream? from the videos ive seen parrolets seem more quiet than other birds

[xhorxhbush]

how much do they cost and are they easy breeders ?

[Riolugia]

@xhorxhbush usually around $50-$150

and they breed like any other parrot

they're so sweet :)

I got mine at around 55 dollars

[xhorxhbush]

@Riolugia i found a pair of them for 60 but now i'm still deciding wether to get a pair of lovebirds or this guys whay do you think ?...wich ones are more friendly ?

[Riolugia]

@xhorxhbush Lovebirds are amazing! :D

Parrotlets are more related to the parrot family than lovebirds and quieter

Lovebirds are somewhat louder if you get around 2 or more

Parrotlets and Lovebirds are both wonderful to have if you socialize w/ them atleast a good amount of hours each day and they're just lovable! :>

So it really depends on you're liking whether you want a parrotlet or lovebird :)

I would want both! (but don't go too crazy)

I also suggest adopting! :D

@Riolugia Lovebirds are NOISY... if i could make the capital letters bigger i would... i have had lovebirds, and the sound they make almost has a metallic ring to it, and will go straight through walls... and they rarely take breaks... you need good nerves, and good nabours... preferably a voilare...

[reezdog]

@noreaga123 You are right. They are very loud. Some stores say they are quite and good apartment birds. This is not the case. I think it depends how they were raised. If they are hand raised they tend to not be so loud. I don't know for sure.
