Just thought I'd say Hi here in the welcome room. You probably won't hear too much from me as I'm more of a lurker and reader. I'm researching getting a first parrot for my Dad and eventually me.. This is only the beginning of my research though, so it will probably be 6+ months before I'm actually bringing one home if we get one at all. My husband and I already have a slew of other pets, but, have been toying with the idea of a bird for awhile. He never has been around a bird and I've only ever had a couple parakeets and a dove. Well, unless chickens and pheasants count.. If someone could refer me to some good articles on nutrition and feeding plans that would be really helpful. I'm one of those crazy nuts that make their own dog and cat food to make sure I know what goes into it. But, perhaps the bird food industry isn't as bad as dog and cat foods? Anyhow, links to some good articles would be appreciated..
