  • Out-of-cage time: Ensure a minimum of four hours of supervised playtime daily in a safe, "bird-proofed" room.

  • Cleaning: Thoroughly clean the cage, dishes, and perches weekly with bird-safe products.
Diet and nutrition

  • Fresh foods: Supplement with a variety of fresh fruits and vegetables like melon, apple, carrots, kale, and collard greens.
  • Foods to avoid: Never feed avocado, as it is toxic to parrots.

  • Water: Always provide fresh, clean water daily. 
Enrichment and social needs

Toys: Provide a constant supply of chewable toys made of safe materials like wood, leather, and certain plastics. Rotate toys regularly to prevent boredom.
  • Stimulation: Offer toys that encourage natural foraging behavior and puzzle toys to keep their minds engaged.
  • Preening toys: Include toys with strings, beads, or leather to allow for preening, which can help prevent feather-plucking.
