Quaker parrots (or monk parakeets) are known for their charming, comical personalities and their willingness to learn human speech. It is an excellent choice for bird lovers who want all the fun of a large parrot in a smaller package. They are a popular pet, good for dedicated beginners, and adapt well to living in a "human flock" setting.
Quakers are very confident and social birds by nature. These birds are delightfully entertaining; they're like little clowns. They have the personality of large birds in a little bird's body. Bold and outgoing, they tend to chatter a lot and are known for their exceptional talking ability. These little guys need just as much attention as bigger parrots.
In captivity, they tend to bond very closely with one person and are known for their loyal nature. Once you develop a connection with a Quaker parrot, you'll enjoy years of companionship. They enjoy cuddling and petting on the head, and you can look forward to excited squeaks that greet you when you get home. Most handfed Quakers are quite gentle and can many make excellent pets for children.
