What is a good bird it will be a first I want an inexpensive to buy and keep like under 30 for bird I want one that stays in a small cage. I have a lot of experience with reptiles and have cats which is why I want a small bird then I can hang the cage. I have a small to medium wire cage I had got it for catnip(cats get it no matter what) I also want a bird that is not messy and doesn't throw its seed much and doesn't need a lot of extra to the diet I was thinking a pair of zebra finches. Any ideas would help and a link to care would help or just you telling care would help. Thanks josh
