Indian neckback Parrot
Hello Experts.
Hope every one is doing good.

i have bought a 3 year old female Indian neck back parrot.
shopkeeper told me she is 3 years old female.
she is very good with me i can touch her but when i try to enter my hand in her cage she starts biting my hand.
secondly i want to know her age by expert forum members as i think she is not young.
i am attaching some helpful pictures and waiting for experts information.
i am new to forum please help me.
waiting for replies

nabeel

Hello & welcome to the forums Nabeel.....I'm sorry, but there is no way anyone can determine a bird's age from a picture or any other way, once it has hatched......

Both males & females reach maturity around 3 years of age, with the males getting a dark ring around their neck and the females will develop a light green ring, so if you can see a light green ring around her neck (I cannot tell from your pictures), she is a mature bird & older than 3yo, however if her ring cannot be discerned, she probably has not reached maturity yet.....older than 3 years old would just be a guess, which may be the reason the seller told you she was 3yo.....
