Choosing a parrot species:
First and foremost, it is important to decide on the type of parrot you want. There are many different types of parrots, each with unique characteristics and needs. For example, Amazon parrots, macaws, canaries, cormorants, and chimes are just a few of the many types of parrots available for purchase. Therefore, it is important to research each type to ensure you choose one whose needs and personality suits your needs.

Once you have chosen the type of parrot, you will need to decide where and from whom you will purchase it. You can seek advice from pet stores, nurseries, professional breeders or animal welfare organizations. It is important to make sure that the parrot is purchased legally and that it is healthy.

Chapter 3: Proper nutrition and diet for a parrot

Parrots are birds that require special attention to nutrition and diet. Proper nutrition plays an important role in maintaining the health of the bird and providing it with the necessary nutrients.

A parrot’s diet should be varied and balanced. The basis of the parrot’s diet is made up of grain crops such as millet, buckwheat, wheat, oats and corn. In addition, the parrot’s diet should include vegetables and fruits such as carrots, cabbage, apples, pears, peaches and berries.
