How much exercise does a parrot need?

Asked a year ago
Parrots require daily exercise to maintain their physical and mental well-being. The amount of exercise needed varies depending on the species and age of the parrot. On average, parrots should have at least 2-4 hours of supervised out-of-cage time per day. This time allows them to stretch their wings, explore their environment, and engage in activities that stimulate their minds. It is crucial to provide them with toys, perches, and a safe space to fly and play. Additionally, regular flight exercise is recommended to prevent obesity and promote muscle tone. Bonding and social interaction with their human companions during exercise time are equally important for parrots' emotional health. Remember, consult with avian experts and observe your parrot's behavior to determine their specific exercise needs.
