Most parrots that live in the wild eat millet, rice, sorghum, nuts, and other plant seeds as their staple food. They will also eat some green leaves and berries for a vitamin boost. Domestic parrots prefer to eat cereal feed with shells.

Some fresh fruits and vegetables should also be provided to ensure that the parrot absorbs nutrients more evenly.

Wild parrots like to live in groups, and when keeping them at home, try to keep a pair, otherwise the parrot will feel lonely. Parrots belong to tropical birds and are not hardy, so keeping a few more can also keep each other warm to avoid frostbite and freezing to death. They usually breed in the warmer seasons and can lay 4-6 eggs at a time.

After the parrot has reached sexual maturity, it will find a suitable mate to match. After a successful pairing, it will need a breeding nest. The mother parrot will lay eggs in the breeding nest and then hatch and incubate the eggs.
