At last you can come to one place to compare all the popular parrot species.


Parrot Species Comparison Chart

We hope that this Parrot Species Comparison Chart will help you to choose a parrot that best suites your environment and desires. It is very important that you research parrot information before you buy a parrot or adopt a parrot.

Don't be anxious about your choice. Some of these parrots below on the Parrot Species Comparison Chart will out-live you! Carefully consider all the disadvantages and make sure they are not only acceptable now but will also be in the future. Compare parrots on the chart to narrow down your choices.

If you can't decide if you want a Parrot or another pet, consider visiting this site. They have useful information on buying and looking after your pets, cats and dogs. This site also covers rodents, reptiles, goats, horses, fish, birds, farm animals, insects and other exotic pets. All you need to know about pet animals. http://www.pet-finder-and-pet-products.com

Remember that anything you read about different parrot species is subject to individual circumstances. There are instinctive behaviors that parrots have, but just like people, no two are alike. Much depends on how it is raised, the environment it lives in, the food it is fed, and who interacts with it, and how they interact with it.

If you have a parrot species that differs from the information listed on the Parrot Species Comparison Chart below, then please contact us and send me your information so that I can post it. The more information people have on individual owner’s experiences with different parrot species, the better equipped they will be to decide what parrot species is right for them.

FYI:I don't do anything with or share the information you provide when you become a member, unless you sign up to receive our Parrot's Cove Newsletter. I just ask for your Name, Email Address and State. I do this to avoid having people pretend to be lots of people sending me information to make it look like many people agree with their biased viewpoint.

If you see a companion parrot that you are interested in on the Parrot Species Comparison Chart below, then click on the underlined parrot species name and it will take you to that species page. If you decide that you want to come back to this page, simply click on the button on the upper left-hand side of your screen.
