Apartment Living With A Pet Parrot
You may face something of a dilemma if you’re thinking of a pet parrot, yet live in an apartment where excess noise could be a big factor.
This doesn’t mean you can’t have a parrot, but it may mean you will need to set your sites on one of the smaller parrot bird breeds, because these also tend to be quieter. If you decide upon a smaller bird like this, then you will not have to deal with the fact that a much larger bird could feel too cramped living in a small apartment.
A cockatiel may not quite be a pet parrot (though some would put these birds in the same category), but it is likely to be a very good apartment bird. Cockatiels enjoy keeping their owners company, and are not as loud as bigger parrots.
Pet cockatiels are also so good-natured and sociable that they can get along well with other small birds you might have. They do need quite a large cage and some room to move, but for companionship and affection they are ideal.
There are several different types of a pet parrot you can have in an apartment, even if you probably can’t go for the largest and noisiest breeds.
Be aware, though, that while these types of pet birds are relatively quiet, to keep them under control will require interacting with them daily, as they need a lot of mental stimulation.
So if you’re willing to put in the time, a smaller, quieter bird may be the answer if you want to have a parrot for a pet.
