Birds as pets, (the winged type.......

He has exercise, but so does my mrs' parrot. He has free-flight/hop of the house from 6 each night, but give him an apple and he'd prefer to munch on that instead. The way he wolf whistles, sings, talks etc suggests he's not suffering one little bit.

I believe you love and do your best for the bird but it is'nt right imo.My father has a huge avery at home and I still think it's cruel.What distances does a parrot cover in a day in the wild I wonder.

Wild parrots granted, these are bred for captivity though, it's all they know - they love it.

If you really believe that fair enough.

Do you exercise your dog outdoors or is he in the house for his natural life.

And what are the chances a wild parrot has of becoming someone's breakfast, lunch or dinner?

Big commitment if you get one. Some can live upto 80years.

... and they stop talking if you move house or change the wallpaper.

Better than living in paranoid of being eaten every second of your live and unable to enjoy the other "good" things of the wild.

So now parrots in the wild suffer from paranoia and because of this they need to be locked up?
