average lifespan of parrots depends on the type

A parrot’s life span in captivity is considerably shorter than his potential life span. This is due to environmental factures. How long they enrich your life is in your hands. Proper nutrition and veterinary care are key factures in the life span of your companion bird. Here are some approximate life spans for various species of common companion birds.
