Red Bellied Poicephalus

Ukgoffer · 7/6/20

We have a red bellied poicephalus that we purchased from First Flight bear Belleville IL. She has moved around the world with us and is the sweetest little girl. She just turned 29. From what I have researched online, it seems to indicate their average lifespan is 20 years? Her colors are not as bright as they once were not as smooth but other than that, she seems to be fine. Any others out there of similar age?

@iamwhoiam I believe had older red bellies.

My understanding is their lifespan is more like 30 to 40 years

Thanks. That’s encouraging!

I've read that it might be up to 50 years.
My oldest red-bellies are about 32 years old. They are the parents of my other red-bellied parrots. Their "babies" range in age from 19 to 23 years old.
I also have a Senegal and he celebrated his 34th bird-day this year.
What is your red-bellied parrot's name? She is cute!
