Should You Let Pet Birds Fly Around Your Home Freely?
My doctor advised me to stop reading Quora posts because it worked against the blood pressure medication he is prescribing for me.
Reviewing the answers I see in the Quora thread using too many useless adverbs.
“Absolutely not” is a cop-out answer as there are no “absolutes” given over eleven thousand species of birds.

Can Birds Forget How to Talk if They Don’t Use Their Voice?
Yes, they can. Birds don’t understand what the words mean. They only know what these sounds are associated with.
When I was hand-feeding Sunshine, my young Indian Ringneck parrot I would talk to him and say things like, “I Love You”, “Nummy, Nummy”, Hello” Etc

Having Rescued Two Older Abused Cockatiels, What Do I Do Now?
Diane P. is unsure on how to handle 2 abused cockatiels.
Questions: I adopted two old, abused, ignored cockatiels, mated. After six months, while hands are still instruments of the devil, they will eat millet I hold, and they both wait for me to open the cage door so we can have our morning time plus their praise and obvious notice of them as mattering.

Is Budgie Breeding Predictable or With Unexpected Consequences?
E (his legal name – must be handy with forms)
We have a large aviary cage with 8 parakeet rescues, 5 girls, and 3 boys. The census has been up to 10, but a few have passed over the years.
We recently moved the cage from a bright front room in the downstairs store, upstairs to our living space where it is not as lit up from several windows but the room does have over 20 lighting fixtures).

Cissy R. has a new inquiry,
I’ve written before about my scarlet, Maxxi, who doesn’t like to fly.
Now I have another question, I am reading about ‘lighting’ for babies.

Is My Conures Behavior Because She Was Traumatized at the Store?
My birds love each other but one (the pineapple) will not come to me or anyone. She takes food from me.
I think she was likely traumatized at the store since she is the same age as my first bird who is easygoing most of the time but was there much longer. I’m hoping time and patience will change it someday.

Can a Flighted Budgie Live With a Clipped Wing Budgie?
Hello. I enjoy your Sunday post very much. I have a question.
I’ve one bird fully flighted 6 months old. I’ve a second bird less than six months old with clipped wings. It seems the fully flighted bird bullys the clipped bird. I house them separately and give them free flight separately.
