• Spawn - Only in jungles (on grass blocks or leaves, light level ≥ 7)

• Variants - Red, blue, green, cyan and gray (purely visual, no playable difference)

Taming

• Food - wheat seeds, melon seeds, pumpkin seeds or turnip seeds

• Procedure - Feed the parrot with seeds by right-clicking until heart particles appear

• Tamed parrots will automatically sit on your shoulder when you move

Behavior

• Fly around randomly, land on blocks and occasionally follow the player

• Imitate the sounds of nearby enemy mobs (e.g. zombies, creepers, skeletons)

• Sit on the player's shoulders when they are stationary (max. 2)

• Can be removed from the shoulders with the space bar (jump) or damage

Functions

• Early warning system - Warn by imitating opponents in the surroundings

• Companion animal - Follow the player over long distances (except when traveling by boat or teleporting)

• Decorative and useful in bases or when traveling

Tips

• Use parrots as an alarm system in your base

• Place them on seats (e.g. fences, carpets) for decoration

• Avoid feeding them with cocoa beans - this kills parrots (even in survival mode!)

• Move around on foot or with a leash, as parrots do not follow boats

Trivia

• Parrots were the first animals in the game to imitate sounds

• Were originally introduced as a tribute to the colorful parrots of South America

• Players can carry a maximum of two parrots on their shoulders at the same time
