Pet Parrots
Parrots are among the birds that are found in
green, yellow, white, blue and other colors. Breeds of parrots that talk like
humans are often kept in homes and the practice of keeping talking parrots is
more common.
Small parrots of Australian breed are just
ornaments in the cages in the houses, but the large parrots become so familiar
with the family due to their ability to speak normally that they are members of
the house.
Their prices also vary by size and breed. Small
parrots can be bought for a few hundred rupees, but the prices of rare Macaws, Cockatoos
and Gray Parrots range from 40,000 to 150,000 rupees.
Parrots are expensive, but
their monthly cost of food and care is much lower than other pets and birds.
The reason is that parrots also eat fruits, vegetables, grains, and bread with
passion.
Be it domesticated birds
or any animal, their nature is very sensitive. Take care of them like small
children, take care of their food and rest, protect them from noise and
pollution and their mood will be fine.
It is best to keep small
children away from animals and birds. Because no matter how familiar the animal
is, it is still an animal, and your slightest carelessness in this regard can
cause harm to both the child and the animal.
Recent research has shown
that spending time with and loving animals and birds can reduce stress. Perhaps
this is the reason why people in western countries prefer to keep a dog instead
of keeping the tension of loved ones and relatives.
You should also spend time
with the pet at home, feed it, and take care of it like a member of your
family. You will forget your worries while enjoying its innocent mischiefs.
Food for Parrots
Take special care of the
nutrition of your parrots for better growth and reproduction. Use sesame seeds,
sunflower seeds, corn, groundnuts, sorghum and millet in the diet of parrots to
meet their nutritional requirements. Mix all these seeds and soak them in water
and feed them to your parrots.
Along with this, fruits
such as apples, guavas and grapes can also be given, and vegetables such as
pumpkins, cucumbers and tangerines can also be given.
Add calcium and phosphorus
to your parrot's diet when the breeding season approaches. Sometimes, parrot
breeders have this rumor that our parrots have eggs without a shell. This is
due to calcium deficiency. Therefore, it is necessary to use calcium and
phosphorus to prevent it.
Sometimes when the eggs
hatch, the chicks are weak and their feet are bent and most of them die due to
lack of vitamins and minerals.
Vitamins B1, B6 and B12
are very important. Add vitamins and minerals to the drinking water and change
the water daily. Give your parrots vitamins A, E and D to increase their sexual
potential.
