OK, I'm in the market for a parrot. Preferably a lorikeet, but anything really, as long as it's bright and cute (must be hand-reared tho!). I was playing with one at the local pet-shop. It was such a cool bird. You could pick it up and chuck it around - turn it upside down and stuff. Grab it by the beak and shake it's head. It just sat there and took it
Kellyville pets were selling them for $250, but that's pretty steep for what is essentially a squalking ball of feathers and bird-poo. Anyone know where I can buy cheap ones from a private breeding or something?
