@@brdhtr The Senegal Parrot has a life expectancy of 30 to 32 Years.My Senegal was even older,he was 3 Years old when i got him,so he passed away aged 38.I always treated him very very well,gave him the right food,fresh fruits and vegetables,i gave him fresh water twice a day,kept his Cage clean etc.My Senegal had his own Room,i left his Cage open 24/7.He was always out of the Cage and had a lot Toys to play with + me playing and pet him etc.Maybe that's all it needs and i hope you gonna have your Senegal as long as i had mine.Senegals are amazing Birds.
What a beauty! Loved mine. Hated the first year though. He chewed on everything including me if he got the chance! Lol, but stopped almost exctly a year old. Then he was the best bird unless grumpy. Miss my Bubby bird.
I work at a pet store, I'm phobic of birds, but have been really really working hard on it. We got a Senegal in and I csnt get over how much I love him and want to train him! They're such amazing animals!!
Im glad to hear! Senegal parrots make great starter pets, but please study thrm brfore buying them to be ready, ialso reccomend you parrotlets in case you want yo know some more
The Senegals and the other medium size African Poicephalus parrots have a nippy character by nature. Handfed domestic birds can be sweet and cuddly like the one in this video. You have to be careful to keep them gentle. Always ask a Senegal if you can touch them, and give notice before putting your hand and fingers in their face.
Having been accompanied through life by a budgie, a scarlet macaw, (my dad's 'wild-caught' in 1930's Venezuela) lifelong pet, and more recently, an abused Hahn's Macaw - which I cared for until he lucked out in finding his 'forever home', I can say with confidence - that this Senegal is thoroughly content living with you, and I'd also venture a guess that he "loves to party and participate in playful activities!
I have a 45 year old sennie. I wish i could give him tickles but he's a biter. Sometimes I can tickle his head but not often. Love this too smart bird species! Too smart cause they learn to swear at people if they hear some swearing.
My 3 year old is the best companion parrot I’ve had. Just love all their acrobatics and chatter. Very chewy so lots of toys for her. We love he our little sennie
We lost our adopted rescue senegal Queen Sherry Dec. 27th, 2021 and we miss her every moment...when we first got her she was the meanest thing on earth, I don't think she had been loved before....but she died in my hands the most loved and loving bird on earth....will forever miss her. Thank you for sharing this!!
I have a Senegal and was showing him your video - it was Great! He really was able to see your Senegal on the screen and was trying to copy what your Senegal was doing. He had a great time!!
My family lost our girl Jessie just a couple months ago. She was 35,, and my mom got her in college when she was just a baby, so she's been around all my life. It feels very weird not hearing smoke alarm noises every time I walk into my mom's office.
I also have a Sennie . Her previous owners no longer wanted her after eleven years. They are not a parrot for first time bird owners as they are rather moody and nippy unless they get their own way. After three years together we understand each other. And she has learned to talk all on her own. I love my Sennie and she loves tickles.
They can squawk quite loadly when they want to. If you are a first time parrot owner this would not be a parrot for you as they are moody and have no problem drawing blood anywhere on you that is convenient. I have owned birds before but in our first couple of years together she nearly took my eye out twice as well as constantly bleeding from my head to my foot on a daily basis. We now understand each other and the biting is few and far between. They require alot of patience and attention. So think it over before you get one.
Senegal’s are fantastic companions. However they require some knowledge of their behaviour. Their beak can inflict a nasty bite. Learn how to read body language will save you from those bites. My 3 year old can be very affectionate and aggressive. They need lots of rest too 10-12 hours. Get the book from Parrot Wizard. He has a Senegal.
This is a late reply but their feet are zygodactyl, like most woodpecker species and many owl species. Zygodactyl means two toes in the front two toes in the back. Owls use them to better grip prey, woodpeckers use to get better climb and perch on trees, and the zygodactyly is why parrots are such good climbers, along with the fact they use their beak as a 3rd limb to climb with. Parrots and other members of Psittaciformes are well adapted for their arboreal lifestyle!
@@rumsenta6836 Wow.. Before 2016, I used the Galaxy S4. Of course my Senegal was with me. My Senegal was born in 2013. It sounds like the connection sound of the Galaxy S4..
one day ima have to get a Senegal parrot. my friend has one he hates him but loves me lol. he got excited when i went round to day :) Would they prefer to be solitary?
So I would like some suggestions for the predicament that I’m in. I have a cockatiel that’s around 2 years old that is a female, and I was wanting a Senegal parrot. I don’t know if they will get along and was wondering if anyone has any advice. Thanks! Btw awesomely adorable video!!
I have a senegal parrot shes 72 yrs old Passed down 3 generations 🤓 Nala hates the phone she attacks it everytime she can lol thanx for sharing ur video💖💖💖 beautiful birdie💖💖💖
@@brdhtr Hey guys I have a wild parrot bought from hunters that is almost similar to your senegal parrots minus the yellow colour. Hopefuly it can be tamed. It looks just like your birds.
@@brdhtr My cousin has had Ollie for 27 years... Thought it was a boy... Then the bird spent winter with me... and laid eggs!!! so it is Olivia, not Oliver... Now Ollie lives with me as it seems she is happier here than she was at my cousin's... They are really cute. Ollie still chews on anything she can get her beak on... I call her a rodent... :-)
@@brdhtr They can sure be so sweet. I adopted mine from a rescue at 5 years old. The adjustment period was....difficult. But 10 years later and he is a loving little guy. From the brief glimpse I had I would be inclined to think yours is a female. The feathers around the vent appeared to be mainly green. My guy is mainly yellow and he was tested as male. This is absolutely not a sure way to identify gender at all but from what I've read online it seems to be a bit of an indication. Not that it really matters all that much honestly.
