Not conure, small hook billed parrot.
Lovebirds are small parrots, oddly enough.
About the same size as a budgie/parakeet.

Lovebirds tend to get territorial.
And destructive.
They love to chew stuff to tiny bits and shreds.
So you have to get sed to replacing toys exceedingly often.

The perch that was replaced by the wooden one was an artifical perch of what looked like molded sawdust. It fell apart, and not from usage. I’m sure it just dried out to where it lost its integrity. So I bought a wooden one, and Stiggy likes it.

I’ve had finches and canaries, but the parakeet is the largest bird I’ve owned. I may be adventurous in the future and find something else, but not right now.

And the tops of wooden drawers and whatever else upon which they can perch. (Do I have to do this not-ending-a-sentence-w/a-preposition jazz? It's inhibiting.)
