Popular Parrot Breeds Kept as Pets in the UK

 

Parrots are among the most intelligent, colourful, and charismatic pets you can bring into your home. In the UK, bird lovers are increasingly drawn to the companionship and personality parrots offer. Whether you're a first-time bird owner or an experienced avian enthusiast, choosing the right parrot breed is key to ensuring a long and happy relationship.

Here’s a look at some of the most popular parrot breeds kept as pets in the UK, and what makes each one special.


1. African Grey Parrots

Renowned for their intelligence and exceptional mimicry, African Grey Parrots are often considered the "Einsteins" of the bird world. These birds form strong bonds with their owners and can learn an impressive vocabulary over time.

2. Macaws

Macaws are the showstoppers of the parrot world. With their large size, vivid colours, and engaging personalities, they make a bold and beautiful addition to any home. They do require plenty of space and mental stimulation, making them best suited to experienced owners.

You can find hand-raised Macaw Parrots for sale in the UK at trusted breeders like Pure Feather Aviary.


3. Conures

Smaller than macaws but just as lively, Conure Parrots are known for their playful antics and affectionate nature. They’re great for families or individuals looking for a social bird without the demands of a large parrot.

4. Cockatoos

With their expressive crests and loving demeanour, Cockatoos thrive on attention and affection. They're ideal for owners who want a deeply bonded bird — just be ready for lots of cuddles and a bit of noise!

Cockatoo Parrots are available here if you’re ready for a lifelong companion.


5. Eclectus Parrots

These visually striking parrots are unique for their sexual dimorphism — males are bright green while females are deep red and purple. They’re relatively calm and enjoy a well-balanced routine.

Thinking of Starting from the Beginning?

If you're interested in raising a parrot from its earliest stages, you can even purchase fertile parrot eggs for hatching — a rewarding experience for dedicated avian keepers.


Why Choose a Reputable Breeder?

Choosing the right parrot is only part of the journey. It’s equally important to source your bird from a trusted and ethical breeder. Pure Feather Aviary is a UK-based aviary known for its healthy, well-socialised parrots and expert care throughout the adoption process.


Final Thoughts

Parrots bring joy, colour, and personality into your life — but they also require time, attention, and a true commitment. Whether you fall in love with the charm of a Cockatoo or the smarts of an African Grey, make sure you’re prepared to give your bird the love and care it deserves.
