Active, playful, and can be feisty. They have a 'big parrot' personality in a small body and can be prone to nipping if not well-trained.
Vocalization & Talking Ability
Fair talkers. They can learn some words but are not known for extensive vocabularies.

A standard pelleted diet with fresh vegetables and some fruit. Their smaller size makes portion control important.

Housing Requirements
A smaller cage is acceptable but should still be roomy. Minimum 24"W x 20"D x 30"H. Can be suitable for apartments if the owner can manage their sometimes yappy calls.
