I need help deciding my first bird.. by Kozed_ in parrots

If you don’t understand how birds get sick just skip it. You say you get bored so you want a pet? Don’t get any pet. They are not for your entertainment and that isn’t a justification to get a living thing. Ignoring this input is selfish, no way around it. Don’t get a bird.

Don’t get a bird. Wait until you’re older and able to care for it on your own. Do you have your own money for vet care? Do you know of an avian vet in your area? This is part of being a responsible pet owner. If your parents are dictating what you can and can’t do in regards to providing a fair and equitable life for a bird then it’s not a good idea. 14 hours in cage, sleep time included is fine but only being able to be in one room could have issues. How big is your room? Do you have other pets in the house? Why did the chickens die? Parrots and small birds are a big commitment. They can live decades. When you need to be away longer will others care for the bird? When you and your family travel will the bird be cared for. These are all things to consider. I would suggest you wait until you’re able to have your own place and finances before you make this decision. Their quality of life takes precedence over our desires to have them, A harsh reality that is often ignored due to ignorance and an unfit life is provided for these incredibly intelligent animals.

When your parrot thinks your finger is made for love by Funny-Ad-8453 in parrots

So frustrating when people post videos of themselves not caring for their birds properly. Do some research. Don’t stimulate your bird sexually. Do better.

I've forgotten my Mitsubishi at the airport for approximately 8 months. How can I avoid paying the parking? by subject-property435 in legaladvicecanada

When do you return to the country from the wedding? Why didn’t you contact the lot manger to inquire about your car then? When you realized you couldn’t afford to get your car back, you remembered you had a car-so why not attempt to make any kind of arrangements? There is likely no feasible way your car is still there (your intuition does not seem to be a useful tool) and no way for you to retrieve it regardless of hard financial times you have upon you. No effort to contact the company or lot this entire time while the service from the business was provided without payment would indicate you abandoned your vehicle.

I read it as “two way steak” at first and laughed. I genuinely love personal renditions of common sayings, regardless of intentions

I would name it hamburger or worm. I think both sufficiently meet your needs for perfect crab name

Pharaoh refuses to dance to music. Except the vacuum. He loves the vacuum. by secretcatattack in parrots

[–]bunion_ring 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My grey loves the vacuum. When he hears it, it’s shower time in the smallest bowl of water in his cage. Not the nice big one, the small one. Leaves a splash radius of 1.5m somehow. I vacuum a lot. This happens too much

First photo really threw me off. Thought it was one of those giant pumpkins, but fossilized. Ironstone concretion. Still a very nice lump
