i have an Amazon parrot and a Severe macaw...
It's true that parrots need a lot of attention and stimulation. I've had mine for over 10 years, so they're used to my crazy hours and sporadic playtimes. (wake up birdy, lets play hide and seek at 3am...) They make for great company.
I worked in a research lab with finches, though. They require minimal care, don't make a lot of noise, and are pretty cheap ($10/each as opposed to thousands for my parrots)
Yeah, if they are used to that lifestyle they will do fine. Plus, you have two of nearly the same size for company (depending on if it's a Panama zon, or a yellow nape amazon!)
Rabbits are pretty fun though. I had a netherland dwarf. She was NOT well socialized as a young one and you could tell... My friends little sister has him and she lets him in a pen all day and it's great. If you live in a quiet home, a rabbit would be a pretty great pet. I would love to get a small rabbit, about a month old, and socialize them and watch them grow and live!
