With their bright plumage, soft grey chest and expressive eyes, they’re as charming to look at as they are to live with. Quakers are highly social birds that form strong bonds with their people and love being involved in daily life, whether that’s chatting, playing, or supervising from a favourite perch.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHand-raised from an early age, Quakers are confident, affectionate and interactive, often enjoying talking, learning tricks and showing off their clever problem-solving skills. They thrive on routine, enrichment and companionship, and are best suited to owners who can provide regular interaction and mental stimulation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eQuaker parrots are long-term and devoted companions. With good care, a balanced diet, regular enrichment and vet check-ups, they typically live 20–30 years, and it’s not unusual for well-cared-for Quakers to reach their early to mid-30s. They’re very much a “lifetime bird”, so adopting one is a long but incredibly rewarding commitment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eContact us or come instore to make an enquiry and discover the bold personality and intelligence of our Quaker Parrots.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFast Facts:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"1340\" data-start=\"1261\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-end=\"1301\" data-start=\"1261\"\u003eHow long will my Quaker Parrot live?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-end=\"1304\" data-start=\"1301\"\u003eTypically 20–30 years with good care\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"1391\" data-start=\"1342\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-end=\"1367\" data-start=\"1342\"\u003eHow big will it grow?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-end=\"1370\" data-start=\"1367\"\u003eApproximately 28–30cm\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"1529\" data-start=\"1393\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-end=\"1453\" data-start=\"1393\"\u003eWhat size enclosure is recommended for my Quaker Parrot?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-end=\"1456\" data-start=\"1453\"\u003eA wire enclosure of at least 36” x 24” x 36”, with strong horizontal bars\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"1672\" data-start=\"1531\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-end=\"1565\" data-start=\"1531\"\u003eWhat does a Quaker Parrot eat?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-end=\"1568\" data-start=\"1565\"\u003eHigh-quality parrot pellets supplemented with fresh vegetables, leafy greens, fruit and occasional seeds\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"1784\" data-start=\"1674\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-end=\"1717\" data-start=\"1674\"\u003eWhere do Quaker Parrots originate from?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-end=\"1720\" data-start=\"1717\"\u003eSouth America, including Argentina, Uruguay, Paraguay and Brazil\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eOur birds come with a 7 day cooling off period and a 3 month health guarantee. For any more information please call our bird room team.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"237\" data-end=\"341\" data-is-last-node=\"\" data-is-only-node=\"\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Kellyville Pets","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42436240965712,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0484\/0009\/files\/Custard_-_Quaker_Parrot.png?v=1780645276","url":"https:\/\/www.kellyvillepets.com.au\/products\/meet-custard-our-hand-raised-quaker-parrot","provider":"Kellyville Pets","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
