Like Jim said, having different birds means supplementing different needs. The more you have, the less time you will get to spend with each individual.

I try to get my birds out for at least 4 hours a day. Whether it's on their play stands or beign cuddled, I like for them to be out and about. During the day, when it's quiet, I take Echo into the school room with me. He plays while I work. He has a more independent side. Harley, however, needs that constant love. You can't just leave her alone as she will beg. She is ok alone, for awhile, but.

I strive for the individual attention. It seems that I have gotten more used to the together aspect rather than giving them each their own time with me. But, I try :) I think it depends on the bird. Echo has made it clear I am him person and nobody else is allowed to give him scritches like I am, flip him over, etc...
