Which bird suits you?

Six questions, answered against lifespan, cage size, noise, talking, dust and temperament for 226 species. Nothing here is a sales pitch - where the closest match still falls short of what you asked for, it says so.

1. How much room is there for a cage?
2. How much noise can the household take?
3. Do you want a bird that talks?
4. How much experience do you have with birds?
5. Is anyone in the house sensitive to dust?
Cockatoos, cockatiels and greys carry powder down. It is the question people wish they had been asked.
6. How long a commitment are you making?
