How loud can ringnecked parakeets get? I'm trying to convince my mom to let me get one but she's concerned about how loud they are + the circle of mess you get when they flap their wings
They can get loud.
They aren’t necessarily the type to be loud all of the time, but when they are they are. They also have this really shrill sound that is like metal cutting across metal that is very unnerving.Of course, it depends also on the individual bird, I would say if volume is a problem an IRN may not be the best choice. They aren’t a very snuggly sort of bird, but they do demand attention with their voices so they can be hard to live with at times. Jacie (words on birds)
