Can you tell the age of a parrot by the color of its feathers?

It is generally not possible to determine the age of a parrot by the color of its feathers alone. A parrot's feather color can vary based on several factors such as gender, genetics, and environmental factors. The color of a parrot's feathers can change over time, which can make it difficult to determine the age of a parrot.

While feather color is not a reliable indicator of a parrot's age, there are other ways to estimate the age of a parrot. One way is to examine the bird's eyes. As a parrot ages, its eyes may become cloudy or develop cataracts. Another way is to examine the bird's beak. A young parrot will have a smooth beak, while an older parrot may have a more textured or rough beak due to wear and tear.

Overall, the age of a parrot can be difficult to determine accurately without additional information such as veterinary records or breeding history. If you are unsure of your parrot's age, it is best to consult with a veterinarian or an experienced avian breeder.
