The Eclectus Parrot is a very beautiful bird. Not only are they beautiful but they’re pretty easy to tame and typically very social. The males are bright green with a cluster of blue on the wing and a vibrant red under their wings while the females are bright red with blue underbellies and black beaks! What a pair they make!
It is very important if you decide to get an Eclectus Parrot that you pick on the right cage and feed him the correct diet. These parrots can be prone to eating too much and if they do not have a big cage to excersize move around in they can get fatty.
Training the eclectus parrot is also highly suggested. They are quick learners and love the stimulation that training provides them. Keeping an ample amount of toys in their cage is also another necessity. It’s very imporant that they are being stimulated even when you’re not around to provide it for them.
All in all they’re a great bird and will make a great pet if given the proper attention.
