Irish, it's stuff like that that I remember! Such as another member walked into a petstore to get a dog scooper, and walked out with a cockatiel! Turns out, it's really an umbrella cockatoo, and they ended up being fantastic parronts! They even went as far as creating their own business selling bird toys! And another member who has had their scarlet macaw, Tiki since she was 16. I know that Scarlets are said to be one of the more difficult macaws...

Situations like that may not turn out for the best, (easy to think about all the people who impulse buy an animal, then can't care for it so many weeks or months down the road - for whatever reason) but if your responsible, and your willing to put all that you've got into the care, then things CAN work out.
