Not wanting to sound nasty but I hope you have been researching the needs of the parrots in question , they are all long loved birds and have different needs ...
Galahs are great companion birds , need lots of mental stimualation and a good diet to avoid fatty tumors later in life ...in return to get a very smart , affectionate companion bird .
Accept that some days you are the pigeon, and some days you are the statue.

Ive done my research, also my grandma has had her galah for 40 years now, and it's still full of beans. So I can ask her 4 a bit of advice :thumbup:

Galah's are the best! I love my pink monster, but they do need a lot of attention or else they can be horrible!
