As many of you may know, I was blessed to be able to attend the 2016 Wellness Retreat, the Nature of Parrots, hosted by Phoenix Landing in Asheville, NC.
There was a study done in the early 1990's (sorry, can't read my scrawl to indicate who did the study) that indicated the following:
Small birds greater than or equal to 6 years (includes budgies and lovebirds)
Cockatiels greater than or equal to 12 years
Amazons, macaws, cockatoos, African Greys greater than or equal to 30 years
Again - I apologize that I did not write clearly enough to indicate who did the study in order that we could look up the details. Since it WAS done in the early 1990's - perhaps another is being contemplated.
