Greycheek parakeets (Brotogeris Pyrrhopterus) are wonderful pets for the apartment dweller or family with a small home. They don't require much space and an 18" square cage would be an appropriate size for this little wonder.
They like toys and places to hide. (They are also known as pocket parrots.) The hand fed babies love to be with people and will ride around on your shoulder or in your pocket as long as you will allow them. It is very easy to spoil this little patch of feathers. Just remember that you are working with a bird that will remain like a two-year-old child and it is best to set your boundaries in the beginning rather than try to correct the problems you create.
