Moustache Parrot Dietary Requirements

 

At VBC we feed our Moustache Parrots small seed, we provide a necessary high-quality crumble to add protein and nutrients to their diet and to keep them healthy. All these requirements can be found in our store.

We also recommend you offer your Moustache Parrot a wide variety of fresh fruits and vegetable, such as carrots and broccoli, as they are excellent sources of vitamins. Fresh, clean water is a must; a Ringneck who lives indoors requires a Vitamin D3 and Calcium Supplement. At VBC we use ‘Avian Sunglo’.

Moustache Parrot Cage and Accessories

 

A cage is important for your Moustache Parrot, there should be enough space for your bird to fly; a minimum size of 60x90cm is recommended. More importantly, is a playground or area for your bird to have freedom.

Moustaches should be out of their cage to stay friendly and at VBC we have a wide variety of stands and playgrounds available.

Check out the Video below of our Bird Cage area and playground choices.

 

Breeding Moustache Parrots

The Moustache Parrot is easy to breed; they reach maturity at 2-3 years of age. They can breed twice a year between August and October and lay 2-4 eggs. The chicks hatch after 22 days and leave the nest at 6-8 weeks; they are independent 10-14 weeks after leaving the nest.

A Moustache sized nest box measuring approximately 25×45 cm that is lined with parrot nesting material available from VBC is suitable to use for breeding.

Moustache Parrots

Moustache Parrot is native to the Himalayas and southern China, down to Indonesia. They are sweet, charming birds which are excellent for the entire family.

Moustache parrots are incredibly intelligent and enjoy a challenge. They are easy to train and are adequate talkers. They are medium-sized parrots that can grow up to 40 cm long and live between 20 and 25 years.

Their colours are mainly green with a dull pink patch on their chest. They have grey heads with black coloured feathers underneath the beak. Moustache Parrots also have black markings on the side of their face resembling a moustache.

Males are distinguishable by their bright red beaks, which is usually fully coloured by around 8 months old. Females have a slightly blue tinge to their head and have completely black beaks.
