Parrots Are High Maintenance Pets

Parrots Are High Maintenance Pets : Parrots Are High Maintenance PetsHave you ever wandered through a pet shop and wondered what it might be like to own a pet parrot? They are beautiful to be sure, and the idea of having someone to "talk" with can be really tempting. But did you know that parrots are some of the most high maintenance pets out there? Before you buy, learn more. First of all, it should be noted that parrots are very expensive to buy, house, feed, and maintain over long periods of time.

In addition to pellets, parrots have other nutritional needs that can only be met with "real" food. Lories, for instance, require nectar to stay healthy. Eclectus parrots need to have fresh cooked legumes such as chick peas and beans as part of their diets. All parrots have specific additional foods that will help them to have happy lives, and owners must be responsible enough to provide their pets with what they need. There are also foods that are toxic to certain breeds of parrots: responsible ownership means learning as much as possible about your bird. Parrots are notoriously destructive: macaw owners often dedicate an entire room of a house as playpens for
