Characteristics and colors

 

african grey parrot for sale price,As the name suggests, this bird only springs grey feathers throughout the body. Some of them will have pale, and thin yet beautiful edges. African greys have two subspecies. One of them is Timneh Greys, while the others are Congo Greys. In terms of African grey parrot size, Congos are larger, and they have black beaks. African grey size ranges from 12 to 13 inches. Their tail feathers are bright red.Timnehs, on the other hand, feature maroon tail feathers with mandibles of horn color.

Once this red tail parrot reaches its adolescence, you can tell the difference between male from a female.

A male’s tail will remain solid red while a female’s tail tip becomes silver. Males also have slender and narrower heads.

If these changes are not very distinctive in your case, then you can get their DNA test or examine their sex through surgical procedures. But that’s the only color they have, and that is exactly why they are called African grey parrots.The monogamous parrots, which mate for life, begin searching for mates between three and five years of age. A pair will seek out pre-existing tree cavities in which to make a nest, lay a clutch of about three to four eggs, which are incubated by the female. Parents are attentive, building well-made nests and feeding their chicks together.

African Grey Parrot Care

These birds require a proper living space for themselves because of their medium to large size.

Therefore, the minimum size of a cage for these birds shouldn’t be less than 2×2 feet in width and at least 3 feet in height.

If you have larger cages available, then you need to go for them, but these measurements are the minimum requirements.

Make sure that you give them a lot of time and train them regularly; otherwise, they will get depressed.
