Someone gave us a Senegal Parrot years ago. I like the bird but I don't think it makes a good pet. The range of sounds and words it uses is impressive. He likes me because I'm the loudest in the house and always joking and laughing. He laughs really loud at my jokes from the other room before anyone else.
When we had him in a central room he would get really loud when we had guests over. If we let him out he flies and lands on your head which is kind of scary. They are also really unpredictable and can bite unexpectedly and really do damage.

They shit EVERYWHERE. You will find bird crap in the most odd places, it dries hard as a rock and it takes a great effort to clean it up.
I can't stress this enough. Do consider having to deal with this for years.

I lived with a bid for 4 years. It wasn't cool.
They shit everywhere, are noisy and are kind of depressing. They shouldn't be kept indoors, it's not in their nature.

Don't get a bird unless you have experience with them. They take more work than you might think. They are also very social so if you must get a bird, unless you commit to spending a lot of time with it, get two so it can have companionship. I grew up with birds (cockatiels and parakeets) and ave rescued a few cockatiels who had lived in crappy situations where people thought it would be novel (and easy) to get a bird for their kids. The bird sat alone in a cage all day and then had objects thrown at its cage when it made noise (and yeah, they do make noise - they are birds!).
Birds are awesome but IMHO they shouldn't be pets.

Rooster is cooler than any pet bird I've seen or friends have had.

Parrots have fascinated us throughout the years due to their high intelligence, gorgeous colors and adoring personalities that simply won’t be ignored. Generations of parrot lovers insist that there is no better pet than a parrot.
