A long commitment
With good care many live 25 to 35 years, so plan for who will care for your bird if your life changes.
They call loudly in the morning and evening; meet a bird before you buy and think about neighbours if you live in an apartment.
Housing
A cage at least 75 cm wide with 1.9 to 2.5 cm bar spacing, a play stand, and several hours out of the cage. They chew a lot: give plenty of safe wood and cardboard.
Diet
A quality pellet, vegetables and fruit every day, and a few nuts as treats and rewards.
