		<description>hi cheeseyguy, budgies are rated as one of the top talkers as they can have extensive vocabularies. They just talk very fast and have tiny voices, so you have to listen closley.

check out the link below on teaching budgies to talk.

		<description>Just wanted to note that the pictured bird in the &quot;Parakeet&quot; section isn&#039;t a parakeet - it&#039;s a Mitred Conure. :) 

I expect that by parakeet you mean budgerigars (also known as budgies). In the US, budgies are often referred to as parakeets, but a &quot;parakeet&quot; is actually referring to various small birds with long, flat tails.

Mitred Conures are definitely not easy to care for, and neither are many parrot types (including some parakeets), so I hope you&#039;ll be able to correct the error soon. :)</description>

		<description>Hi,
I used to own a dwarf hamster untill it died =( they are brilliant pets. they only bite if they see someone they dont know so if you play with them lots theyre brilliant, cuddly, cute little furballs.
Also though, i really want to get a budgie so i can teach it how to say a few things. But im not really sure if all budgies can talk. also, if it is hard to teach them, if budgies are happy in their cages and if they poo everywhere. Can you help me please? Thank you.</description>

		<description>My daddy bought me the cutest little bunny for last christmas (female;holland lop). im am 11 and im such a rabbit luver, plus i stayed up ALL night just to learn about rabbits and bunnies(in case i ever had a rabbit &lt;3) adopt a bunny, they are adorable cute cuddly and fun. plus its not hard to find a cage or a pen to bring home :3 especailly if you are an inactive pet owner or you need to go away for while. they really dont need THAT much attention, and just fill extra food and water in their bowls(or whatever they drink from).plus, you dont need to dress them in winter, cuz rabbits CAN survive in snow. and you dont need to give them a daily walk. i know this comment is a little long, but i cant help it, hehe.</description>

		<description>Nice choices!  And very cute pictures!

I just wanted to note that terrapins are aquatic turtles, they actually live in the water, but come up for air and just need a place to bask under a UVA/UVB lamp.  They love to swim and need lots of room, so a rectangular aquarium is best for them, and be prepared for them to grow. :)

I have 2 Red-eared Sliders (the same species of turtles in your picture!), I actually caught them in a canal in Louisiana (very common there).  They are so very cute!  they&#039;ve grown much bigger than the babies shown in the picture, they&#039;re 2 years old now.  It&#039;s therapeutic to watch them, and they do the funniest things!  I love when they stack on top one another to be closest to the lamp, they look like acrobats.

Their maintenance is fairly simple, but set-up of their environment is very important, and can be tricky if you&#039;re new to it.  This is a website that I visit regularly on Red-eared Sliders specifically:
http://www.redearslider.com/

Oh, and one that should have at least honorable mention on the list is the Toucan.  If you want a quiet, non-biting, hypo-allergenic pet, you should DEFINITELY look into getting one.  Here&#039;s a website to look at.

		<description>Correction-

not ALL hamsters bite

really only the large, golden hamsters do

get a dwarf hamster, they are calm and kid-friendly
but speedy little demons

and the picture of the gerbil is actually a roborovksi dwarf hamster
i recognize the distinct white &quot;eye-brows&quot;</description>
