Princess Parrot cage and daily life

Because of the long tail, provide a flight cage at least 36 x 24 x 36 inches (90 x 60 x 90 cm) with 1/2-5/8 inch bar spacing, plus 2-3 hours out of the cage and chew toys. They bathe often; keep away from kitchens (Teflon/PTFE fumes are fatal).

Common mistakes with Princess Parrots

Common errors are an all-seed diet causing fatty liver, nonstick-fume or toxic-food exposure, and too little flight space. Assuming they are hands-on companion parrots when they are naturally gentle aviary birds is also a mistake.
