Parrots are awesome pets. By Naurius LEU

This is my parrot Pupa. Sadly not many people these days keep parrots as pets. Some people think that parrots make horrible pets, some have heard bad myths about parrots and think that they are true or that they are expensive. These are the reasons why there aren’t many parrot keepers. But in fact parrots are awesome!!!!!! And here are some reasons WHY!!!!

• There are many species of parrots. Different species have physical and mental differences. Some are small, some are big. Some parrots can only have one color, others can have two or even more colors. So you can pick and choose which one you like more. Parrots are smart animals. As we know some parrots can learn to speak, but many bird species cant. But that doesn’t mean that they aren’t intelligent. A lot of parrots can learn tricks really easily. Like Budgies or Parakeet, Cockatiels. Parrots are social animals. Parrots are flock animals, which means that they live in groups. My parrot keeps staying close by. Sometimes when I don’t pay attention to her, she comes on my computer and tries to get some attention. She even eats food when I eat something.
• Parrots can live for a long time. Some parrot species can live 100 years some can live 25 years, others 15 years. It only depends on the species.

Hope these reasons change your mind about parrots and maybe one day you will too get a parrot.
