How long do Caiques live?
Caiques typically live 25-40 years in captivity with good diet and veterinary care, a multi-decade commitment that should be weighed before purchase.
What do Caiques eat?
Feed roughly 60-70% pelleted parrot food with the remainder vegetables, a little fruit, and occasional cooked grains or a few seeds as treats. Avoid avocado, chocolate, caffeine, and alcohol. Caiques are active and prone to weight gain if overfed fatty seeds, so keep treats to under 10% of intake.
