Re: Any Parrotlet owners out there?
I've got a parrotlet. She's every bit an amazon in a tiny body. She pins and fans her tail with the best of them. If your only experience with parrots has been a budgie, I'd recommend a handfed, tame baby from a good breeder if you decide to go with these guys. They're prone to being cage territorial and bitey at times, but they can also be pretty sweet and they're darned cute.

Re: Any Parrotlet owners out there?
Thanks for the response! I joined the "talk parrotlet" forum a few days ago too- and have enjoyed looking through all the member's lovely birds.
I think a hand-raised, socialized baby is the way I'll go. It'll be hard to resist petstore ones, but I know it will make all the difference in the end. Sometimes I see ones that need rehoming on sites like craigslist, but if they aren't friendly as adult (or bonded to another adult), then they probably won't ever be that tame?
Still have lots of research left to do...
