I strongly beleive that in buying any Bird as a pet that you want to sit on your shoulder. U must either buy one thats been tamed, or save your money and contact a breeder in your area. To buy one thats only a few weeks out of the nest.

This is best to look at the baby in the box and select the one you like, then once its out go and make sure its what you really want and, then purchase it once its feeding (fledging) on its own.

Remember, not all birds can be tamed. But as i Breeder i specialise in tamed birds and beleive its not hard with patients and at the rite age. I dont perfer to Hand Raise them, but play with them till they sit on my hand and walk the hand then the finger and once the bird knows you, you can have it sitting on your shoulder in a few weeks. DONT OVER PLAY WITH IT, or it will be come stressed and frightend of you. At 1st play with it 3 times a day for 15- 20mins then after a few days, move up to 30-40mins 4 times a day till it knows you. The once you know its settleing in with you or your family, its then going to be a struggle to put the little one away.

All the best and i hope every one has fun with there little friends.
They make such good pets once tamed.
