Wow, this ought to tick off Corky big time!
Are chickens better bird-pets than parrots? Let's hear from you. I'll get you started:
1. Chickens can be kept outside unlike parrots, which are tropical birds that are usually kept indoors.
2. Chickens can be kept outside or inside! You can get bantams that grow to be about the size of a parrot, and can keep them in a cage the size of a rabbit hutch.
3. Chickens are omnivorous and can eat whatever you eat; parrots can't.
4. Chickens lay eggs which you can eat; parrots don't do that.
5. Parrots have very loud voices and shrieks; chickens don't.
6. Neither chickens nor parrots can be potty-trained very well, but chickens produce enough poop to be used in your garden.
7. Parrots are expensive to buy; chickens start at $1.99 per chick.
8. Parrots can bite really really hard! Chickens can only peck, and they can't hold on with their beaks like parrots can. 9. Chickens will even perch on your arm, just like a parrot.
Send in your other ideas. No offense to parrots! All in good fun.

When parrots get old they may require expensive vet bills to help them survive. When chickens get old they may require a marinara sauce and some pasta ;)
