At Victorian Bird Company, we feed our Senegal parrots a stable diet of 10% nuts and grains like almonds; 40% small parrot seed, high-quality crumbles and pellets; and 50% of fruits and vegetables such as bananas, carrots, grapes, and bok choy. This diet provides necessary vitamins and nutrients and are sold in our store.
Fresh, clean water is also a must. Senegal Parrots living indoors need a Calcium & Vitamin D3 supplement such as Avian Sunglo.

Senegal Parrot Cages and Accessories
Your Senegal Parrot‘s cage should provide plenty of space for your bird to stretch its wings and move around. The recommended minimum cage size for Senegal Parrots is 90x140cm. More importantly, a playground or area where your parrot can be free should be provided.
This variety of bird needs to spend whatever time possible outside of its cage and interacting with people to stay super tame
At Victorian Bird Company, we provide a variety of playgrounds and stands perfect for your feathered friend.
Kindly check out our video below of our Bird Cage Area and some playgrounds.

Breeding Senegal Parrots
Senegal Parrots reach sexual maturity a bit later than similar sized parrots, usually around 3-4 years of age. Senegals are difficult to breed and need more privacy than other similar birds. Senegal Parrots typically breed once per year. The female usually lays 3 eggs, and the eggs normally take up to 4 weeks to hatch. Those chicks leave the nest at 9-10 weeks and are ready for new homes 2-3 weeks after leaving the nest.
A parrot sized nest box approximately 30×70 cm lined with parrot nesting material available from Victorian Bird Company is suitable to use for breeding.
Senegal Parrots
The Senegal Parrot is native to Central & Western Africa. Senegal Parrots are very intelligent and love lots of attention and stimulation. They can learn tricks and mimic words.
Senegal Parrots grow up to 26cm long and have been known to live up to 50 years of age.
Senegal Parrot males and females cannot be visually told apart from each other. Experienced Senegal owners and breeders can sometimes tell sex through subtle behaviours, but this is not a reliable method. To know with full certainty the sex of your Senegal Parrot, you should get a DNA test.
