Solomon Island Eclectus Baby (Eclectus roratus solomonensis) Available! Eclectus can make phenomenal companions. They are smart and can be great talkers. They are friendly but also do well with some independence. Eclectus require a very dynamic diet. We encourage a diet consisting of as much variety as possible. Eclectus Parrots are one of the few species that are sexually dimorphic. This means that you can tell whether the parrot is male or female just by looking at the color of the plumage. Males are almost entirely green with red under the wings, and a bit of blue on the shoulders. They are have a candy corn beak, which is smooth and shiny. On the other hand, females are primarily red with purple or blue stomachs and shoulders. Their beaks are black and shiny. The eyes of both the male and female are yellow. Ideally, the minimum cage size for this bird would be 36’’ long, 24’’ wide and 66’’ high with ¾’’ wire spacing. At Parrot Stars we focus on education, nutrition, and conservation. We work very hard to help educate our customers on parrot companionship. Prior to taking a bird home, we will provide information on proper housing, creating a safe environment, diet, behavior, hormones and much more. No question will go unanswered. Every hand fed baby is weaned on to a high variety diet. They are weaned onto fruits and veggies, a soak and sprout mix made here in store, high variety seed mix that is also made in store, and naturally colored pellets. If you have questions regarding this baby, or any others that we have available, please give us a call! Feel free to follow us on Facebook @parrotstars for more pictures, videos and information.
