Question
Hello again Dianna, I have decided to get a baby Senegal this summer if I can find one that is... I wouldnt like buying one from a petstore they are so very expensive for the first thing and are probaly not as nice as newly weaned birds staright from breeders. I have a few questions I am so hoping you can help me with:

What size of cage will a single senegal need? So he or she can spend my working time in without being cramped or bored(lots of toy space)

How much out of cage time will the bird need daily? I am a working person and normaly work 5 days a week 8 hours a day thou I work less during the spring and winter)

Have you eprsoanly had a senegal before or knew anyone who had one are they quite birds like lovebirds/budgies/cockatiels no loud screams or anything?

THank you for your time and I hope to hear from you again soon.

I have not personally had one, but I know a couple of people that do, and they are on the loud side.  

I hope this helps.  Let me know.

God Bless.
