Hi

Ive had budgies in the past, pretty much my whole childhood

anyhow ive moved out, my last budgie was with the parents still and has since passed away

Looking to getting a cockatiel but have a few questions

1/ Any breeders or places i can get a fairly tame young cockatiel from near Colchester Essex?

2/ Would one cockatiel be ok if he/she was on his/her own during the day, but plenty of attention when i get back from work?

3/ whats the min sized cage i should be looking at ?


Many thanks in advance

It's a shame for a young bird to be kept alone,it would be better with company.If you have no joy on here with a bird/s try 'Birdtrek' (Google) there are many parrotlike breeders advertise on there.
as for the cage...just get the biggest you can.
And be warned with cockatiels...they can spot an open window and are gone in a flash...they're sods for it.
