QP Care
Here you will learn how to take very good care of your QP's health, playfulness, diet, housing, behavior, and talkabellty.
Quaker  Literature
Quakers from what I know of or excellent Pets and great Companion's. Not very good too place them with Cockatiels or other smaller Parrots. My tiels are alway's very scared of Zeta. You must read your Quakers mind to study her or him. QP's are very fun and can learn terrific  talkers at a very young age. Zeta is alway's trying her best to say what I'm saying. It shoure is a joy!
Quakers are beautiful birds. The Normal Green like Zeta are the mane one's you see as pets and in the wild. If you perfer the most colorful QP's like Skippy the Blue QP. you will pay more for it. They are other mutation's like the Aqua, Lutino, Albino, Cinnamonblue, and Cinnamon. These are strickingly beautiful. I have never seen one yet. (You can find out more about these colors on the QuakerMan's Weby).
*QP Behavior*
What to Expect
Because  what I have read in the "Guide To Companion Parrot Behavior". Mttie Sue Athan sade. Of the Quaker Parrot's instinct for territorial aggression, its important not to service the cage with the QP in it. Just open the cage door let the Quaker come out to the top of the door, then step the well-practiced bird up to a hand or a play pen. Then food, water, toys, or perches can be safely changed, and the QP will not learn how much fun it is to chase hands and other human parts.
The Noisy or Quiet QP
A well-adjusted quaker parrot is too busy to be noisy. If the bird is making lots of unpleasant sounds, it may be unhappy. Try to find out why. Much chronic noise-making is a habit, like any other. First assess and improve the environment, then guide the bird to replace habitual noise-making behaviors with more apporpriate behaviors. These little green feathered dragons are never spayed or neutered for behavioral reasons and, therefore, they may be exected to demonstrate several diverse forms of sexually-related behaviors. As the QP grows's to an adult there will be  more unpleasanet behaviors then when it was 6 months old. Quaker's are not loud but not quiet. They can make very unpleasaent sounds that may desturber some owner's. Many elements of the quaker parrot's language are far from pleasant. Zeta can tell you the rest!!  But you must know that Parrot's that make noisy like chirping and chattering is normal. If you think that your QP is loud he or she is very happy. If your QP is quiet then you know that something is roung. It can be all sort's of thing's including illnesses. (Read QP Health Center)
Many Quaker Breeders have a proven track record of consistently providing quiet, talkative quakers, while some breeders don't have a clue about how to produce a quaker parrot that isn't noisy. Be shure to research the expected characteristics of your NEW baby quaker by talking with other people who know or own babies from the same source. (Read more on Quaker Behavior Here).
