Profile: Quaker Parrots

Friday August 15, 2008
Known for their charming, comical personalities and their willingness to learn human speech, the Quaker Parrot is an excellent choice for those who want all the fun of a large parrot in a smaller package. They adapt well to living in a "human flock" setting, and enjoy spending time with their owners. If you think that I Quaker might be the right addition to your family, then check out my profile on Quaker Parrots. It will help you get to know the species, and in turn will help you decide if a Quaker is right for you!

Quakers are AWESOME. they are the most loving and devoted little guys packed with love and emotion. My Hollywood (my first) has a vocabulary of about 35 words, tells my exactly what he wants and is too much fun and joy!I have 24 other birds, 11 of them quakers, and they run rings around my macaws! Quakers are the best!!!!!

My quaker is 8 and his name is zuccinni cause that is the first huaman food he ate. He has a vocab of almost 250 words and laughs and coughs and crys with and at me. He eats just about everything I eat. He scolds the dogs answers the phone and calls me Mommy Girls. He knows he is the best and I know he is the best and if you get one you’ll know yours is the best. They are a great bird in a small pkg.
