    No, copy is recommended to be kept separately.

    Parrots belong to a group life, generally two parrots are raised in a cage, one male and one female are mainly for the convenience of raising, and generally a parrot will die.

    Parrots are generally kept in cages, especially budgies. The size of the cage should be more than 15 times the volume of the parrot (10 times for a pair, and so on), there should be a food basin and a water basin, and a perch branch (plastic or steel is acceptable, if it is not wood, it will be scratched and gnawed), and the cage should be made of steel.

    First of all, 180 is not expensive

    How much, in general.

    du90-200, the higher the number of changes in various places, dao180 can also accept it. Secondly, peony parrots do not have the right to easily distinguish age from male and female, it is best to ask the boss of your purchase, it is recommended that the landlord buy new birds, old birds are afraid that they do not have the ability to reproduce to deal with them, and the birds are best for 3-6 months. Then the yellow peach parrot is of the peony family, the peony will be more fierce, and will tear the claws and wings of the tiger's skin, and the polyculture is not convenient for breeding, and the bird will run the nest and bite the bird.

    It is recommended that the landlord get a wooden house for the peony, try not to let too much yang rays, so that the parrot can rest and breed, when the mother bird lays eggs, the landlord does not touch, as little as possible to observe. When the smell changes, the mother bird will not hatch the chicks. What other questions can you ask me, I raise peonies and tiger skins all year round

    Hello, I'll talk about your problem, yellow peach 180** can't be said to be too expensive but not low, I'm in Chengdu, the bird shop in the city version of the city is 160-180, the big bird in the suburbs is 100, and the adult bird is about 160.

    Yellow peach I can only describe adult birds and young birds, as for the specific months or years, this is not very easy to say, to look at the bird **, the characteristics of young birds are too red on the face to look pink, not as lively as adult birds, adult birds' faces are red, this is a very intuitive difference. Peony parrots are very territorial, and newcomers of the same kind may be bitten to death regardless of male or female, let alone tiger skin, so don't mix them. The above is your question.

    Yellow peach peony parrot spike hall parrot and peony parrot can breed together, but the next generation will become a string species, and the variety spike chain is not pure. The reasons are as follows: different varieties of peonies are easy to cause low reproductive ability, commonly known as mules.

    The results of mating can be many, depending on the genetic combination, and there is a good chance that the body type and flower color will be very different from the parents! Probably a deformity!

    Parrot cages: Parrots are kept in pairs or in groups, so you should first choose the right cage according to the number and size of the peony parrots you are keeping, and at the same time ensure that the cage you choose is firm enough.

    Parrot food: There are many foods that parrots can eat, such as rice, rice grains, chestnuts, sunflower seeds, oyster meal, green vegetables, and water.

    Fruits, etc., can also choose some special nutritious feed to feed them. The food that parrots eat should be varied so that they can ensure adequate nutrition.

    Feeding young birds should take a small number of meals, and before feeding, make sure that the food of the last feeding has been digested, so as to avoid the accumulation and fermentation of old food and cause bursitis.

    Generally speaking, peony parrots are simple to raise, peony parrots are also more resistant to coarse grains, disease resistance is relatively strong, as long as food and drinking water are ensured, pay attention to environmental hygiene, do not need special care.

    Personal breeding peony parrot experience to share it, peony parrots daily millet based, appropriate to add a little rice husk, millet, barnyard seeds, grass seeds, you can also add an appropriate amount of small hemp seeds and sunflower seeds (remember to be sure to feed less, feed a few grains a day), cuttlefish bones can be hung in the cage for peony parrots to peck their own, the bottom of the cage is covered with fine sand, easy to clean up the feces, to ensure that the cage is clean and hygienic.

    In addition, it is not recommended to hang the breeding nest before the parrot is underage, which can also prevent the parrot from burrowing into the nest as soon as it sees a person, so that it can be familiar with people as soon as possible, so that it is easy to approach them in the future for candling and checking the hatching situation.

    1. Depression bites.

    Bird friends who like parrots, at first glance, are attracted by the parrot's gorgeous feathers, but after some understanding, they may know that parrots are not cared for and will get depression, mainly the smarter the parrot, the more likely it is to be depressed, and second, the parrot calls loudly.

    A lot of birds will say that parrots are loud, and I think it's okay to keep a pair or two of parrots. If there are a large number of breeding, then I recommend that you change to a larger house, or a single-family house, otherwise it is easy to be knocked on the door or complained by neighbors.

    Third, the feather powder is serious.

    All parrots have feather powder, which is similar to chalk ash, which mainly gives the parrot feathers waterproof and insect protection. If you have children or the elderly, I don't recommend raising parrots. People who have a habit of cleanliness should also not keep parrots, parrots moult every year, and their feathers will fall in any corner.

    Fourth, the cost of feeding is high.

    A parrot costs a few thousand dollars, and there are many people who buy a parrot for one or two hundred thousand
