I intend for this post to be amusing. I was just thinking about what I've "learned"...haha...from some other bird owners. Not anyone at this forum, but other forums, social media, etc.
~ Owning a Cockatoo or Macaw species makes you smarter than people with smaller birds. You are the ultimate authority. You don't waste time playing with Budgies and Cockatiels.
~ Wanting to know the bird's gender is stupid. (I am simply curious to know this detail about a companion who I hope to spend at least ten years with.)
~ Any table-top cage is automatically bad, no matter how big, even if it's not a vertical/tower shape. Only free-standing cages are acceptable.
~ You should observe the bird's behavior for a few days before naming. (I understand doing this, but not every name needs to be based on behaviors. I always liked Griffin for a male bird, and Thunder for a bird with grey.)
~ Pellet-free/no-pellet diet will ruin a bird's health.
~ A diet with pellets is lazy and too artificial.
~ If you own more than three birds, you are hoarding/collecting and clearly don't care about all of them. Only a select few YouTube/social media stars are allowed to own four or more.
~ A dedicated bird room is fantastic!
~ Keeping the birds in their own room is sad. (We decided on a bird room partially because this room holds heat well during the cold months.)
