  Hawk-Headed Parrot

FEATURED BREEDER

SPECIES DESCRIPTION
 

Genus: Deroptyus

Species: D. accipitrinus

Subspecies: D. a. accipitrinus (buff crown); D. a. fuscifrons (Brazilian, rarer)

Native continent: South America

Probable lifespan: 30 to 40 years

Personality: Some liken its personality to that of a caique – playful, intelligent and active. Hawk heads like to hang upside down and rock back and forth.
Housing: 24 by 24 by 32-inch cage minimum is recommended. They also need plenty of toys.

Behavior issues: Can be noisy, aggressive and nervous. Because of their aggressiveness, they are recommended for experienced pet bird owners.

Medical  issues: No specific health concerns

Unusual characteristics: Hawk heads have a unique, rounded crest at the back of the head, which encompasses the head’s circumference when raised (unlike a cockatoo’s crest, in which the crest is toward the center of the head). The crest rises when the bird is alarmed or excited.
