Your Quaker will love you. It will be a part of your family. Whenever possible, your relationship with your pet bird will benefit from outings and vacation time together. This page was designed to help you do it more safely. Don't take your bird everywhere, take him everywhere you can .
Quakers are highly intelligent animals.
It is estimated that their emotional maturity and intellect compare to a two or three year old child. Being the intelligent creatures that they are, Quakers require a tremendous amount of stimulus and attention to avoid boredom and the associated behavioral detriments. I truly believe that the more changing circumstances you expose your parrot to, the better your parrot will become at reasoning, understanding human behavior, and bonding. There's nothing like a trip to Petsmart with your Quaker to build yours and his self confidence. Since Quakers are quite territorial, and you are the only familiar territory in the new environment, you are where the Quaker will most likely choose to be.
