Very interesting ... I just read up some about them, seems they're very sociable. Where do you keep such a bird, inside or out?

shes a bit small, maybe the size of a too or macaw, except her beak is a bit larger. being one of the med-sized hornbills, her beak will only be about 6-ish inches long. we have tame ones at the zoo, they are AWESOME birds!! they can be as tame as a very sweet and playful parrot, just with a diff diet. you can keep them inside or out, but since its getting wintery here, she will be inside until it gets warm enough outside to keep her out there. im gonna try to work with her so that she can be tame enough to have free reign of the place and get some good excersise in :) shes so young still, i dont think ill have a prob with her :)
