Bee parrot


I need to know his age i don’t know how old he is and I just want to know his age


Answer:

Hi Theresa,

With the exception of a few species, it is impossible to determine the age of a parrot once it is over a year old. Some species have indications like eye color, foot color, or feather markings. But even then, it can only indicate a possible age range. I’m not sure if you mean you have what is sometimes called a Bee Bee Parrot? There are several species that are called this, but none have any age indicators so you bird could be 2 or 20 and still look exactly the same.

Thank you for asking Lafeber,

Brenda
