   Members of the Pionus family make some of the best pets of all the exotic birds. Many consider them to be the ideal all-around family pet!

   The Pionus parrots are very colorful when they reach full maturity. They are curious and quite intelligent, able to learn a variety of tricks as well as say a few words. A great choice for the beginner as they are affectionate and undemanding. They are also usually not a loud bird.
