    OK.

    Millet is a cereal and is one of their favorite foods. When farming, millet can be fed to them as the main feed. The amount of millet fed can be 50 to 70 percent of the total food.

    When feeding them millet, it is best to feed them the kind with the shell, or a mix of the shelled and unshelled ones. Because the millet with the shell can help them sharpen their mouths, it is more beneficial for their growth.

    Millet can be used as the main feed for parrots. Normally, it is fed every day. Because parrots have satiety nerves and know that they are hungry and will not eat, they can be fed with a food box.

    Put a small food box in the birdcage with 50 to 60 percent millet in it, and they can eat it themselves. Don't overfill it, or it will easily spill and cause waste. If you want to develop a better bond with your parrots, you can feed them with millet in your hand.

    Usually it needs to be fed twice a day.

They rise and rise and rest at sunset.

When they are not disturbed, they generally like to sleep at the top of the cage, so that they feel safe (because there are mice, cats, snakes and other natural predators on the ground, unless they come down in groups to eat food, usually they also fall on trees, including breeding boxes), if they are released to fly indoors, they are willing to perch and settle in high places and green places. >>>More
