Cape Parrot for sale

Cape Parrot for sale.Cape parrots are very unique and are very rare in the pet trade. Very few Cape parrots remain in the wild, and they are classified as an endangered species. Their plumage is generally green with a silvery grey head and chest. Their “shoulders” are red and/or orange, as well as the forehead when they’re young. As adults, males will lose the orange band on the forehead, whereas females will retain it. This allows them to be visually sexed. Actually, all “Cape” Parrots for sale in this country are not truly Capes but another subspecies. Everyone says they are Capes in the US, so it has become standard to refer to these birds as such. The real Cape Parrots are only in Africa.

Grooming
