Hi and welcome to the board. I would also like to know why you feel they are a lot of work because honestly out of all of our birds our quaker is not the one that is the most work and I would never say that they are a lot of work. Quakers are great pets and they are a lot of fun. They talk up a storm and my husband takes his bird everywhere with him. Birds require work in general and for the most part you definately want to make sure that you don't get a bird and start out spending all of your time with it and then not spending the same time with it down the road. You want to make sure that when you get your bird that you spend the time with it now that you will be spending with it later. What I am saying is don't lavish it with love only to stop it down the road like if you went back to work or school or something. This info is for the person who said she was looking at getting a quaker. I hope this helps.
