Check out your local pet store and chose the best one to suit you.

If the bird is on sale in a good reputable store then they should have all the details of any legal requirements.

I think teh legalities depends on where you live where you are planning to get the bird and what type of parrot you are getting.

BEFORE getting a parrot I suggest you do the folowing

At the begining of the day

Tie a large bag of sugar to your shoulder.

Then put 1 packet of cornflakes, 1 pint of milk, 4 eggs, a couple of salads and some ripe fruit on the floor and stomp on it until its mush, leave to dry.

Empty your wallet into the trash can

Turn the strerio to a station that plays music you hate and turn it up VERY LOUD.

Talk to the bag of sugar all day and listen to the noice

At the end of the day scrape the mess off the floor and get the fllor spotlessly clean before taking the sugar bag off your shoulder and turning the music off.

IF you enjoyed your day you MIGHT enjoy a parrot. I ADORE mine and wouldnt be without her BUT I did this and coped with it for a week before I got her!

By the way your family and neighbours also need to be part of the test!

Depends on where you live. But before you go out and buy the first parrot you set your eyes on, be aware of the reasons you want one. Don't just get it because you want a talking bird..or a colorful one. There has to be many many reasons for you wanting a bird..also understanding that there is a lot to consider when purchasing one. Like, is it going to be locked in the cage all day. What will you do with the bird if you have to leave town for a couple of days. Are you willing to give a bird that lives 40+ years all the attention that it needs. Do you have the funds to not only buy the bird..but to provide it with a large enough cage that it will be happy with..do you have the money to provide the correct nutrition that it needs. Is there an avian certified vet in your area that you can take the bird too when the need arrises..and it will. Specific birds require specific food types..they can't live on seeds. Are you willing to accept the fact that things in your home are going to get pooped on.that you are going to have to, on an everyother week basis, scrub and clean all of the birds things. They are messy. You sweep the floors..and within an hour it looks like you've not touched it in a week. I sweep my carpets 4 times a day. I'm NOT kidding. I take bird cages outside with bleach and a scrub brush every other week to clean them. I have to mop my walls..and shampoo my carpets on a monthly basis.
