African Grey parrot Lifespan

Grey parrots feature distinctive scalloped grey plumage, a bright red tail, white face mask, and yellow eyes in adults. They weigh 418–526 grams and can live 40–60 years in captivity with excellent care, though wild lifespans average around 23 years.

Common health issues include feather plucking from boredom or stress, calcium deficiency leading to weak bones or seizures, obesity from poor diet, and respiratory problems if exposed to fumes or poor air quality. Regular avian vet checkups with fecal tests and bloodwork are essential, plus weekly weighing to monitor health.

African Grey parrot Daily Care Routine

Provide 10–12 hours of dark, quiet sleep nightly, 2–3 hours of supervised out-of-cage time for interaction and exercise, and daily foraging/puzzle toys to combat boredom. Mist or offer baths several times weekly, spot-clean the cage daily, and fully disinfect weekly with bird-safe products.

Keep them away from kitchen fumes, non-stick pans, toxins, and drafts; maintain stable room temperatures and moderate humidity.

Diet and Feeding African Grey parrot

Base the diet on 75% high-quality pellets, 20–25% fresh vegetables and leafy greens (e.g., kale, carrots, peppers), and under 5% fruits or treats like nuts. Fresh water daily; avoid seeds as a staple, avocado, chocolate, caffeine, and salty foods.​

Feed in the morning with pellets and veggies, offer training treats midday, and remove perishables by evening.​

African Grey parrot Cage and Enrichment

Use a large cage (minimum 36x30x48 inches high with horizontal bars for climbing) in a social family area but not the kitchen. Include varied perches, foraging toys, and rotate them weekly; provide a separate play stand for out-of-cage time.

African Grey parrot Training Basics

Leverage their intelligence with positive reinforcement (treats for “step up,” targeting, or tricks); short 10-minute sessions daily build vocabulary and bonding. They excel at mimicking speech but need mental stimulation to avoid neurotic behaviors.
