Softbills in general, really. I didn't even think anyone had them until I saw some sort of hornbill at a bird store. They also had a raven.

Why are softbills so rare? From what little I've read about caring for ravens, hornbills and toucans they need a big ass aviary. Is it their diet? Aside for that they don't seem any harder to take care of then a large parrot. Which is still too much of a commitment for me, but I was just wondering.

Pic semi related. Can't remember what type of hornbill they had but I'm pretty sure it wasn't a toucanet.

Hornbills generally are large birds and need flying space. The smallest ones are about the size of a larger parrot, and the largest ones are about three feet tall. You can clip a parrot's wings because they can have fun by just climbing stuff, but hornbills love to fly. The bird's personality itself doesn't differ THAT much from other tropical birds, but they're kinda needy. And they're also very noisy. They're great pets, though.
