Amazon Parrot Housing tools: what they help with
These calculators size your Amazon parrot's living space: the minimum and recommended dimensions, how much bedding or substrate to buy and what fits in the space you have. Too little space is one of the most common welfare problems in pets. The right size gives a Amazon parrot room to move, rest and behave normally.
What to know about housing and enclosure size for Amazon parrots
Amazons are robust, confident parrots known for singing rather than plucking. They gain weight easily on seed diets and need a pellet-based diet with vegetables plus a large cage and daily flight time. Target humidity is around 40-60%.
