Let’s talk about parrot pounds. Well, it’s actually parrot grams. We’ve all heard that parrots are great at hiding illness because they’re prey animals and have to appear healthy or else they could be eaten in the wild. Well, that’s true, but there are ways that we can catch many health issues early if we know what to look for. The first step is observing and knowing your bird well enough to know what their normal behavior looks like. In my opinion, that is the most important thing you can do to catch on that something might be wrong. Another important thing that helps is weighing your parrot regularly.
