2 pairs off dwarf rose head parrot

I'm at a loss to think which species you are referring to...do you mean the Mitred Conure (Aratinga mitrata)?

I'd say you are describing a Caique.

My recommendation would be a rainbow lorikeet.

Welome to this great forum. I dont have an recomendation regarding what perrot you should chose, it depend on what you would like to get out of if. So read and learn from other and then after a period of time i think you know what perrot you would like to have. But why not a Amazon?

 

[mtdoramike]

I would recommend an Eclectus or an African grey. But neither are very cuddly birds.

My Grey is extremely cuddly, but the vet thinks that is because she is blind and it's comforting for her to cuddle with me. Since I've only had her a short time I don't know if she was always this way or not. But, it's not something I usually hear about Greys.

i just dont like the looks of the amazons and i know 3 amazons and have meet 7 amazons, and they talk a loot (thats good) but none of them are friendley, and theyre owners have scars after biting. tho i know al parrots can bite, but i also know a galah who is realey friendley and cudly, and i know 1 african grey who is friendley and talk a loot.
and the breeder who breed a loots of birds also recomende the electus to be a talkaktive and easey parrot.
but i need you guys to tel me yabout the parrots you know good and bad to se the big picture.

I used to be afraid of amazons, too. But mine is also cuddly and he has not (yet) bitten me hard. He gave me some little warning nips after he got mad at me for taking him to the vet. He is also rather old and not as hormonal as a younger bird would be. Lately he has been putting his beak around one of my fingers, but has not put pressure on it. I admit that makes me kind of nervous and I tell him no.

Each bird is an individual though.

You might like a Blue Crowned Conure. They are not nippy or bossy like most conures, and they talk well and mine loved cuddling. She talked all day in a very loud, clear voice. She was not real acrobatic or clowny, but she made me smile and laugh all day. She was intellectual like a Grey is and needed mentally stimulating toys.
