I love my Eclectus parrot. He was hatched approximately on the 12th March 2023, which would make him 5 and a half months. I finished off his hand rearing from the breeder which allowed the bonding to be a better one. He was raised on a hand rearing mix with a spoon curved to mirror the beak. However even now, he feels I am his mum and even still seeks to gain food out of my mouth. He is extremely intelligent and chatters away to himself all the time but says Hello very clearly. He does an incredible wolf whistle and other whistles as I have taught him. He so absolutely loves his cage, to the point of being very protective of it. I give him a regular diet of the special pellets for the eclectus parrot plus fresh fruit and vegetables which consists of diced carrot, sweet potato, cucumber, bok choy, apple, pear, cauliflower, broccoli etc. He loves his fresh veges and his pellets. The pellets actually consist of 80% of his dietary requirements.
