Quaker
Parakeet
The quaker parakeet
is a green bird with grey feathers on neck and forehead.
Variations include a blue color and a very rare yellow
color. The quaker parakeet originates from
southeastern Brazil and Argentina. With a personality
that has no rival the quaker parakeet is becoming increasingly
popular. The reason the quaker parakeet is outlawed
in several states is because it is considered a potential
agricultural pest. A quaker parakeet owner like myself
can attest to the fact that this special little treasure
is in a class of its own.

The quaker parakeet
has proven to be just as intelligent and much more personable
than the common parakeet. Unlike many other parrot species,
a quaker parakeet's behavior can often be predictable.
Therefore the quaker parakeet is more responsive when
behavior modification techniques are needed. The quaker
parakeet is a cheerful, happy and active bird.
It is very vocal by nature. It is a fast learner, rapidly
picking up words and phrases that it hears often, and
can frequently be heard "conversing" with
its neighbours as they practice saying different things.
Quaker parakeets
will put great effort into learning short tunes heard
on the radio, television, or from humans. It is also
famous for its terrific sense of humor. It will spend
hours swinging, climbing and playing with toys. As you
can understand, a trained quaker parakeet is a source
of unlimited fun. Since it is often referred to as a
bundle of energy, an untrained quaker parrot can make
your life miserable. Is yours already doing that?
